hello

the question here requires the subtraction of polynomials


\begin{gathered} 4x^2-5x+4 \\ - \\ 9x^2+3x-1 \end{gathered}

if we are to do this, we have to subtract the polynomials based on their degree

this would be equal to


-5x^2-8x+5

the above polynomial is the result after subtraction, but we can as well, decide to multiply through by -1, to make or eilimate the negative sign on the second degree polynomal


\begin{gathered} (-5x^2-8x+5)*-1 \\ = \\ 5x^2+8x-5 \end{gathered}
