  2. $(p^2 + p + 3) - (-4p^2 - p + 3)$
  3. $(-4m^2 - 6m) - (6m + 4m^2)$
  4. $(m^2 - m - 2) + (-m + 7m^2)$
  5. $(-k + 5) - (3k^2 - 6)$
  6. $(18p^2 + 11p - q^2) - (15p^2 - 3pq + 4q^2)$
  7. $(12xy - 8x + 3y) + (15x - 7y - 8xy)$
  8. $(3bc - 9b^2 - 6c^2) + (4c^2 - b^2 + 5bc)$
  9. $(3x^2 + 12x - 7) - (5x^2 - 19)$
  10. $(5x^2 - 19) - (3x^2 + 12x - 7)$

Explanation:

Response
Problem 1: \((b - 10)+(4b - 3)\)

Step 1: Remove parentheses

Since there are no negative signs outside the parentheses, we can directly remove them: \(b - 10+4b - 3\)

Step 2: Combine like terms

Combine the \(b\) terms: \(b + 4b=5b\)
Combine the constant terms: \(-10-3 = -13\)

Step 1: Distribute the negative sign

Multiply each term inside the second parentheses by \(-1\): \(p^{2}+p + 3 + 4p^{2}+p - 3\)

Step 2: Combine like terms

For \(p^{2}\) terms: \(p^{2}+4p^{2}=5p^{2}\)
For \(p\) terms: \(p + p = 2p\)
For constant terms: \(3-3=0\)

Step 1: Distribute the negative sign

\(-4m^{2}-6m-6m - 4m^{2}\)

Step 2: Combine like terms

For \(m^{2}\) terms: \(-4m^{2}-4m^{2}=-8m^{2}\)
For \(m\) terms: \(-6m-6m=-12m\)

Answer:

\(5b-13\)

Problem 2: \((p^{2}+p + 3)-(-4p^{2}-p + 3)\)
