Answer:
3. - 8n² -8n + 3
Explanation:
(4n^4 - 8n +4) - (8n² + 4n^4 +1)
Firstly, open the brackets.
= 4n^4 - 8n +4 - 8n² - 4n^4 - 1
Now, group like terms.
= 4n^4 - 4n^4 - 8n² -8n - 1 + 4
4n^4 - 4n^4 cancel out with each other since one is negative and the other is positive. So we're left with - 8n² -8n - 1 + 4
= - 8n² -8n - 1 + 4
= - 8n² -8n + 3
