To show the subtraction of the second expression from the first in the polynomial equation format, you'll need to provide the second expression for clarity. However, I'll assume you want to express the subtraction of a generic polynomial, say \( ax^2 + bx + c \), from your first polynomial \( x^2 + 5x + 2 \).
The expression representing the subtraction would look like this:
\[ (x^2 + 5x + 2) - (ax^2 + bx + c) \]
Simplifying this, we get:
\[ (1 - a)x^2 + (5 - b)x + (2 - c) \]
So, if you provide the second polynomial, I can fill in the specific coefficients for you. If you are looking for a specific second polynomial to subtract, please provide it!
