Subtracting 3xy2 from 8xy2 gives the same result as the expression. A. 3xy^2 - 8xy^2 B. -7xy^2 - 2xy^2 C. 7xy^2 - 2xy^2
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.
