5k3-3k+7-(-2k3+k2-9)
basically rewrite with simple algebra principles
15k-3k+7-(-6k+2k-9)
split up the parenthesis
15k-3k+7+6k-2k+9
sort them
15k-3k+6k-3k+7+9
short down by adding up the similar factors
answer: 18k+18
factorise
18(k+1)
both forms are right

Answer: The required value is
7k^3-k^2-3k+16.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to subtract the polynomial
-2k^3+k^2-9 from
5k^3-3k+7.

That is, we need to find the value of S, where


S=(5k^3-3k+7)-(-2k^3+k^2-9)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

To perform the given subtraction, we need to combine the like terms as follows :


S\\\\=(5k^3-3k+7)-(-2k^3+k^2-9)\\\\=5k^3-3k+7+2k^3-k^2+9\\\\=(5+2)k^3-k^2-3k+(9+7)\\\\=7k^3-k^2-3k+16.

Thus, the required value is
7k^3-k^2-3k+16.
