Answers A, C, B in order

Step by step
When you subtract like terms, you change the signs on the second expression and add the coefficients


(3x^2 - 6x + 11) - (10x^2 -4x + 6)

(3x^2 - 6x + 11)
(-10x^2 +4x -6)

A = -7x^2 -2x +5
_______________

(-3x^2 -5x -3 ) - (-10x^2 -7x + 2)

(-3x^2 -5x -3 )
(10x^2 +7x - 2)

C = 7x^2 +2x -5
______________

(12x^2 + 6x -5) - ( 5x^2 +8x -12)

(12x^2 + 6x -5)
( -5x^2 -8x + 12)

B = 7x^2 -2x +7
