The correct Answer is:
To find the constant term when subtracting the expression \(-17x^2 + (3x - 7)\) from \(2x^2 + (3x - 4x^2)\), we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Write the expressions clearly**: We have two expressions: - Expression A: \(2x^2 + (3x - 4x^2)\) - Expression B: \(-17x^2 + (3x - 7)\) 2. **Combine like terms in each expression**: - For Expression A: \[ 2x^2 - 4x^2 + 3x = (2 - 4)x^2 + 3x = -2x^2 + 3x \] - For Expression B: \[ -17x^2 + 3x - 7 \] 3. **Set up the subtraction**: We need to subtract Expression B from Expression A: \[ (-2x^2 + 3x) - (-17x^2 + 3x - 7) \] 4. **Distribute the negative sign**: When we subtract, we change the signs of the terms in Expression B: \[ -2x^2 + 3x + 17x^2 - 3x + 7 \] 5. **Combine like terms**: - Combine the \(x^2\) terms: \[ -2x^2 + 17x^2 = 15x^2 \] - Combine the \(x\) terms: \[ 3x - 3x = 0 \] - The constant term is \(+7\). 6. **Identify the constant term**: The constant term from the final expression \(15x^2 + 0 + 7\) is \(7\). ### Final Answer: The constant term is \(7\).
