Question:
Subtract (4p²q - 3pq + 5pq² - 8p + 7q - 10) from (18 - 3p - 11q + 5pq - 2pq² + 5p²q²)
Solution:
In short for your question:
- 2pq² - 5pq² = -7pq²
Complete step-by-step explanation:
In the question, we are asked to subtract first term from second term. So, we take the second term first while subtracting.
Now, arrange the like terms and write them one below the other.
18 - 3p - 11q + 5pq - 2pq² + 5p²q
-10 - 8p + 7q - 3pq + 5pq² + 4p²q
Since we are subtracting, we just change the signs of the below term and add them.
18 - 3p - 11q + 5pq - 2pq² + 5p²q
{+} +10 + 8p - 7q + 3pq - 5pq² - 4p²q
28 + 5p - 18q - 8pq - 7pq² + p²q
∴ The answer is 28 + 5p - 18q - 8pq - 7pq² + p²q

What are like terms?
Like terms are terms which have the same variables.
For example:
- 3p and 8p are like terms because both have same variable 'p'.
- Similarly, 5pq and 3pq are like terms because they have same variable 'pq'
Answer:
-2pq^(2)-5pq^(2)=7pq^(2)
