We are given the following functions:
![\begin{gathered} f\mleft(x\mright)=-5x^2+x-2 \\ g\mleft(x\mright)=-3x^2+3x+9 \end{gathered}](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/college/ygtrxy9qkudc0ea1s5dyppx1t1y92qjhdp.png)
we will find their difference.
![f(x)-g(x)=-5x^2+x-2-(-3x^2+3x+9)](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/college/vlncmkjos2ol2oytrshateszrvwvc7woh0.png)
First, we will change the sign of the terms inside the parenthesis, since it is preceded by a minus sign:
![=-5x^2+x-2+3x^2-3x-9](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/college/okfj76o75wmmmu8sfk91v1l1fd1tit46ds.png)
Now we will associate like terms, that is terms that have the same variable elevated to the same exponentÑ
