Hey there!

(2y² + 8y - 7) - (- 3y + 3)

Simplify the subtraction symbol. This'll change the signs of -3y and +3.

(2y² + 8y - 7) + 3y - 3

Remove the parenthesis.

2y² + 8y - 7 + 3y - 3

Combine like terms: 8y and 3y

2y² + 11y - 7 - 3

Combine like terms: -7 and -3

2y² + 11y - 10

This is the fully simplified expression.

Hope this helps!
