Can two polynomials be subtracted such that the difference is a trinomial? If so, give an example. (1 point) O Yes. (3x + 3) - (3x + 2y + 3) O Yes. (3x + 3) - (2x + y + 3) O No. Two polynomials can never be subtracted such that the difference is a trinomial. O Yes. (3x + 3) - (2x + 2y + 4)​

Answer:

(d) Yes. (3x + 3) - (2x + 2y + 4)​

Explanation:

The first answer choice results in a monomial, -2y

The second answer choice results in a binomial, x -y

The third answer choice is proved wrong by the fourth answer choice.

The fourth answer choice results in x -2y -1, a trinomial.
