how do solve this problem? (-2y5+y3-2y) - (y5-4y3+6)=

Answer 1

(-2y⁵ + y³ - 2y) - (y⁵ - 4y³ + 6)

OK, we need to simplify this expression, not solve it. First, distribute the minus sign across the terms in the second parentheses:

-2y⁵ + y³ - 2y - y⁵ + 4y³ - 6

Combine like terms:

-3y⁵ + 5y³ - 2y - 6
