EXPLANATION

Given:

f(x) = x^2 - 10x + 24

g(x) = x-4

We need to compose them subtracting:

f(x) - g(x) = x^2 - 10x + 24 - x -(-4) (Adding similar terms)

f(x) - g(x) = x^2 -11x + 28

The equation will be:

x^2 -11x +28=0

As we know, the standard form of a quadratic function is:


x^2+(b)/(a)x=-(c)/(a)

Thus, to obtain this standard form, we need to apply the following steps:

1) Subtract +28 from both sides:


x^2-11x=-28

ANSWER is x^2-11x=-28 (Standard Form)
