Answer:

3x^3 + 6x^2 - 24x + 27.

Explanation:

To subtract these two polynomials, we need to combine like terms.

7x^3 - 16x + 18 - (4x^3 - 6x^2 + 8x - 9)

First, we can simplify the parentheses by distributing the negative sign:

7x^3 - 16x + 18 - 4x^3 + 6x^2 - 8x + 9

Next, we can combine like terms:

(7x^3 - 4x^3) + (6x^2) + (-16x - 8x) + (18 + 9)

Simplifying further:

3x^3 + 6x^2 - 24x + 27

Therefore, the answer is 3x^3 + 6x^2 - 24x + 27.
