Verified Answer :

Subtracting 3xy² from 8xy² is 8xy² - 3xy² = 5xy²

Answer: C. 7xy² - 2xy² = 5xy²

Answer:

Option (c) is correct.

\(7xy^2-2xy^2\) is the correct expression

Step-by-step explanation:

 Given : Expression \(3xy^2\) and  \(8xy^2\)

We have to subtract \(3xy^2\) from  \(8xy^2\) and choose the correct expression from the given options.

Consider the given expressions  \(3xy^2\) and  \(8xy^2\)

we have to subtract \(3xy^2\) from  \(8xy^2\)

Thus, while subtracting we write term after 'from' before.

Therefore, \(8xy^2-3xy^2=5xy^2\) is the correct expression

Also subtracting \(7xy^2-2xy^2=5xy^2\) gives same result.

So, option (c) gives the same result as obtained from given expression.
