Answer:

(3x² - 6x + 11) - (10x² - 4x + 6) is equivalent to expression -7x² - 2x + 5

(-3x² - 5x - 3) - (-10x² - 7x + 2) is equivalent expression to 7x² + 2x - 5

(12x² + 6x - 5) - (5x² + 8x - 12) is equivalent expression to 7x² - 2x + 7

Explanation:

✔️(3x² - 6x + 11) - (10x² - 4x + 6)

Open the bracket by applying the distributive property

3x² - 6x + 11 - 10x² + 4x - 6

Add like terms

-7x² - 2x + 5

Therefore:

(3x² - 6x + 11) - (10x² - 4x + 6) is equivalent to expression -7x² - 2x + 5

✔️(-3x² - 5x - 3) - (-10x² - 7x + 2)

Apply distributive property

-3x² - 5x - 3 + 10x² + 7x - 2

Add like terms

7x² + 2x - 5

Therefore:

(-3x² - 5x - 3) - (-10x² - 7x + 2) is equivalent expression to 7x² + 2x - 5

✔️(12x² + 6x - 5) - (5x² + 8x - 12)

12x² + 6x - 5 - 5x² - 8x + 12

Add like terms

7x² - 2x + 7

Therefore:

(12x² + 6x - 5) - (5x² + 8x - 12) is equivalent expression to 7x² - 2x + 7
