To complete the polynomial equation, we will subtract the second expression from the first and determine the resulting difference.

Given the first expression: \( 9x^2 + x + 13 \)

And the second expression: \( 2x^2 + 12x + (x^2 + 5x + 2) \)

First, we need to combine the terms of the second expression:

  • Combine the \( x^2 \) terms:

    • \( 2x^2 + x^2 = 3x^2 \)
  • Combine the \( x \) terms:

    • \( 12x + 5x = 17x \)
  • The constant term remains \( 2 \).

Thus, the second expression simplifies to: \( 3x^2 + 17x + 2 \)

Now, we can perform the subtraction: \[ (9x^2 + x + 13) - (3x^2 + 17x + 2) \]

Distributing the negative sign across the terms of the second expression: \[ 9x^2 + x + 13 - 3x^2 - 17x - 2 \]

Now, combine like terms.

  1. For \( x^2 \) terms:

    • \( 9x^2 - 3x^2 = 6x^2 \)
  2. For \( x \) terms:

    • \( x - 17x = -16x \)
  3. For constant terms:

    • \( 13 - 2 = 11 \)

Therefore, the resulting expression after subtracting is: \[ 6x^2 - 16x + 11 \]

Now we can fill in the blanks:

  • The term representing the missing expression after subtraction is \( 3x^2 + 17x + 2 \).
  • The resulting difference is \( 6x^2 - 16x + 11 \).

So the completed polynomial equation is: \[ 9x^2 + x + 13 - (3x^2 + 17x + 2) = 6x^2 - 16x + 11 \]

bot are you sure?

Let’s go through the problem step by step again to ensure accuracy.

  1. First Expression: \[ 9x^2 + x + 13 \]

  2. Second Expression: \[ 2x^2 + 12x + (x^2 + 5x + 2) \]

    We need to simplify the second expression first:

    • Combine \( x^2 \) terms: \[ 2x^2 + x^2 = 3x^2 \]
    • Combine \( x \) terms: \[ 12x + 5x = 17x \]
    • The constant term remains \( 2 \).

    Therefore, the second expression simplifies to: \[ 3x^2 + 17x + 2 \]

  3. Now we perform the subtraction: \[ (9x^2 + x + 13) - (3x^2 + 17x + 2) \]

    When we distribute the negative sign: \[ 9x^2 + x + 13 - 3x^2 - 17x - 2 \]

  4. Combining like terms:

    • For \( x^2 \) terms: \[ 9x^2 - 3x^2 = 6x^2 \]
    • For \( x \) terms: \[ x - 17x = -16x \]
    • For constants: \[ 13 - 2 = 11 \]

Therefore, the final result after performing the subtraction is: \[ 6x^2 - 16x + 11 \]

So the filled in polynomial equation is: \[ 9x^2 + x + 13 - (3x^2 + 17x + 2) = 6x^2 - 16x + 11 \]

This result appears to be accurate based on the calculations provided. If there's anything specific you'd like to clarify or if I misunderstood your question, please let me know!

bot each equation needs to be separate from each other

I understand now that you want the equations separated clearly to show the subtraction process step by step. Let’s format it properly.

  1. First Expression: \[ 9x^2 + x + 13 \]

  2. Second Expression: \[ 2x^2 + 12x + (x^2 + 5x + 2) \]

    Simplifying the second expression:

    • Combine \( x^2 \) terms: \[ 2x^2 + x^2 = 3x^2 \]
    • Combine \( x \) terms: \[ 12x + 5x = 17x \]
    • The constant term remains: \[
      • 2 \]

    So the second expression becomes: \[ 3x^2 + 17x + 2 \]

  3. Subtraction Setup: We want to subtract the second expression from the first: \[ (9x^2 + x + 13) - (3x^2 + 17x + 2) \]

  4. Distributing the Negative Sign: \[ 9x^2 + x + 13 - 3x^2 - 17x - 2 \]

  5. Combine Like Terms:

    • For \( x^2 \) terms: \[ 9x^2 - 3x^2 = 6x^2 \]
    • For \( x \) terms: \[ x - 17x = -16x \]
    • For the constant terms: \[ 13 - 2 = 11 \]
  6. Final Result: Thus, the result of the subtraction is: \[ 6x^2 - 16x + 11 \]

Finally, putting it all together, the filled-in polynomial equation, clearly separated, looks like this:

\[ 9x^2 + x + 13 \] \[

  • (3x^2 + 17x + 2) \] \[ = 6x^2 - 16x + 11 \]
