To subtract the polynomial \( 4x^2 - 3x + 5 \) from \( 6x^2 + x - 2 \), we can write it as:

\[
(6x^2 + x - 2) - (4x^2 - 3x + 5)
\]

Now, distribute the negative sign:

\[
6x^2 + x - 2 - 4x^2 + 3x - 5
\]

Now, combine like terms:

1. Combine the \( x^2 \) terms:
\[ 6x^2 - 4x^2 = 2x^2 \]

2. Combine the \( x \) terms:
\[ x + 3x = 4x \]

3. Combine the constant terms:
\[ -2 - 5 = -7 \]

Putting this all together, we get:

\[
2x^2 + 4x - 7
\]

So the answer is:

**A: \( 2x^2 + 4x - 7 \)**.
