To determine which example correctly demonstrates polynomial subtraction, we need to perform the subtraction \((2x^2 + 6x + 1) - (3x^2 + 3x + 9)\) correctly.

Let's perform the calculation step-by-step:

1. Start with the first polynomial:
\[
2x^2 + 6x + 1
\]

2. Subtract the second polynomial:
\[
-(3x^2 + 3x + 9) = -3x^2 - 3x - 9
\]

3. Combine the two results:
\[
(2x^2 + 6x + 1) + (-3x^2 - 3x - 9) = 2x^2 - 3x^2 + 6x - 3x + 1 - 9
\]

4. Simplifying each term:
- \(2x^2 - 3x^2 = -x^2\)
- \(6x - 3x = 3x\)
- \(1 - 9 = -8\)

Putting it all together, we get:
\[
-x^2 + 3x - 8
\]

Now we can check which of the provided responses matches this result:

1. \((2x^2 + 6x + 1) - (3x^2 + 3x + 9) = -5x^2 + 3x - 8\) (This is incorrect.)

2. \((2x^2 + 6x + 1) - (3x^2 + 3x + 9) = 5x^2 + 9x + 10\) (This is incorrect.)

3. \((2x^2 + 6x + 1) - (3x^2 + 3x + 9) = x^2 + 3x + 8\) (This is incorrect.)

4. \((2x^2 + 6x + 1) - (3x^2 + 3x + 9) = -x^2 + 3x - 8\) (This is correct.)

Therefore, the fourth response correctly demonstrates polynomial subtraction.
