−x3−4x2+9x−3 must be subtracted from x3−3x2+5x−1 to get 2x3+x2−4x+2 . State true or false.
Let us verify the statement by subtracting −x3−4x2+9x−3 from x3−3x2+5x−1.
The statement holds true if the difference is 2x3+x2−4x+2.
Now, (x3−3x2+5x−1)−(−x3−4x2+9x−3)
=x3−3x2+5x−1+x3+4x2−9x+3
=2x3+x2−4x+2
Hence the given statement is true.
