Answer:

Subtracting Polynomials is very similar to adding polynomials. In fact, we will be changing the subtraction problem to an addition problem.

In the Pre-Algebra section of the website, we started out by reviewing integers.

We said, "When you subtract integers, you must add the opposite. We also talked about the Keep - Change- Change Rule. That rule applies to polynomials as well.

Take a look at these examples that show you how to rewrite the problem as an additional problem.
