1 answer

To simplify the expression, we can distribute the negative sign inside the second bracket:
(3x^2 + 10) - (-7x^2 - 9x)

Next, multiply both terms inside the second bracket by the negative sign:
(3x^2 + 10) + 7x^2 + 9x

Combine like terms (terms with the same variables and exponents):
3x^2 + 7x^2 + 10 + 9x

Combine the x^2 terms:
10x^2 + 10 + 9x

The simplified expression is 10x^2 + 9x + 10.
