Solution:

The difference in expression is written with a - sign in between

The difference of 17x-13y+8 and 20x+6y is :

17x-13y+8-( 20x+6y)

There is a - sign outside the bracket ,if we open the bracket the signs will change.

17x-13y+8-(20x+6y)

=17x-13y+8-20x-6y

=17x-20x-13y-6y+8( Rearranging the terms)

=-3x-19y+8(Simplifying like terms)

Answer:

[tex]=(17x-13y+8)-(20x+6y)=-3x-19y+8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Expressions [tex]17x-13y+8[/tex] and [tex]20x+6y[/tex]

To find : Write the difference of expressions and simplify it ?

Solution :

The difference means subtracting the two expression,

Let [tex]17x-13y+8[/tex] ....(1)

[tex]20x+6y[/tex] ....(2)

Subtract (2) from (1),

[tex](17x-13y+8)-(20x+6y)[/tex]

Simplifying it,

[tex]=17x-13y+8-20x-6y[/tex]

[tex]=-3x-19y+8[/tex]

Therefore, [tex]=(17x-13y+8)-(20x+6y)=-3x-19y+8[/tex]
