Step 1

Expand the bracket


\begin{gathered} (6x^3-4x+5)-(3x^3-5x^2+6x-2) \\ 6x^3-4x+5-3x^3+5x^2-6x+2^{}^{} \end{gathered}

Step 2

Simplify further by combining like terms


6x^3-3x^{3^{}}+5x^2-4x-6x+5+2^{}^{}
3x^3+5x^2-10x+7

Hence the answer is 3x^3 + 5x^2-10x+7 in the required format as required.
