Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is $4y^2-y-14$

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students $=4y^2+y-8$

Number of students who play football $=2y+16$

Therefore the number of students who play basketball

           $=$Total number of students $-$ Number of students who play football

           $=(4y^2+y-8)-(2y+16)$

           $=4y^2+y-8-2y-16\\=4y^2-y-14$, combine like terms
