Final answer:

The result of subtracting 12h - 11 from 34h^4 is 34h^4 - 12h + 11, but this does not match any of the provided options A to D. A typographical error seems present in the question.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking for the result when subtracting 12h−112h−1 from 34h´3/4. We must note that there seems to be a typographical error in the terms given. Assuming that the terms were meant to be written as 12h - 11 and 34h^4, we can proceed as follows:

  • First, we write down the two expressions: 34h^4 and 12h - 11.
  • Next, we subtract the second expression from the first one: 34h^4 - (12h - 11).
  • Since we are subtracting, we must distribute the minus sign to the terms inside the parenthesis: 34h^4 - 12h + 11.
  • As these terms are not like terms (due to different exponents on h), they cannot be simplified further. Therefore, the final expression is 34h^4 - 12h + 11, which is not any of the options (A) through (D).

If we were to correctly interpret the given answer choices and the expressions, we would likely need more information or a corrected version of the expressions to provide the correct result.
