Answer:
[tex]\huge{\boxed{\sf{ 2y^{2} - 9 }}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]( - 3y^{2} - 8 ) - ( - 5y^{2}+ 1 )[/tex]
While subtracting , sign of each term of the second expression changes.
⇒[tex]- 3y^{2} - 8 + 5y^{2} - 1[/tex]
Combine like terms : [tex]-3y^{2}[/tex] and [tex]5y^{2}[/tex]
Like terms are those which have the same base.
⇒[tex]2y^{2} - 8 - 1[/tex]
Remember : The negative integers are always added but posses the negative ( - ) sign.
⇒[tex]2y^{2} - 9[/tex]
Hope I helped!
