Answer:

C)
n^3+4n^2+8n-16

Explanation:


2n^3+4n^2-7+(-n^3)+8n-9=\\n^3+4n^2-7+8n-9=\\n^3+4n^2+8n-9-7=\\n^3+4n^2+8n-16

(Just combine like terms)

Only C)
n^3+4n^2+8n-16 fits our answer.

Answer:


{n}^(3) + 4 {n}^(2) + 8n - 16

Option C is the right option

Solution,


2 {n}^(3) + 4 {n}^(2) - 7 + ( - {n}^(3) + 8n - 9) \\ = 2 {n}^(3) + 4 {n}^(2) - 7 - {n}^(3) + 8n - 9 \\

combine like terms


2 {n}^(3) - {n}^(3) + 4 {n}^(2) + 8n - 7 - 9 \\simplify \\ = {n}^(3) + 4 {n}^(2) + 8n - 16

hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment..
