Solution

We need to subtract 3x2y+8xy+6xy2 from 7x2y+9xy+8xy2.

Horizontal Method:–––––––––––––––––––––
(7x2y+9xy+8xy2)(3x2y+8xy+6xy2)
combining the like terms
=(7x2y3x2y)+(9xy8xy)+(8xy26xy2)
=4x2y+xy+2xy2
=(4)x2y+xy+2xy2

The coefficient of x2y when we subtract 3x2y+8xy+6xy2 from 7x2y+9xy+8xy2 is 4.


Column Method:––––––––––––––––––


The coefficient of x2y when we subtract 3x2y+8xy+6xy2 from 7x2y+9xy+8xy2 is 4.
