Answer:

3x^2 - 9x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify:

  • Distribute the -1 into the second term.
  • Collect and combine like-terms (terms with the same variables or powers)

The expression can be rewritten has (2x^2 - 5x + 3) -1(-x^2 + 4x - 5)

After distributing the -1, the equation becomes:

  • (2x^2 - 5x + 3) + (x^2 - 4x + 5)

The like-terms are:

  • 2x^2 and x^2
  • -5x and -4x
  • 3 and 5

Combine the like-terms:

  • 2x^2 + x^2 = 3x^2
  • -5x - 4x = -9x
  • 3 + 5 = 8

Substitute the simplified like-terms into the expression, in descending order:

  • 3x^2 - 9x + 8
