Answer:


2x^2 - 12x + 1

Explanation:

Hello!

Given the expression:
4x^2 - 8x + 3 - (2x^2 + 4x + 2)

Simplify by combining like terms.

Like terms are terms with the same variable and raised to the same power.

Simplify


  • 4x^2 - 8x + 3 - (2x^2 + 4x + 2)

  • 4x^2 - 8x + 3 - 2x^2 - 4x - 2

  • 4x^2 - 2x^2 - 8x - 4x +3 - 2

  • 2x^2 - 12x + 1

The simplified form is
2x^2 - 12x + 1.
