= 3x – y + 11 + (-y – 11)
= 3x – y + 11 – y – 11
= 3x – y – y + 11 – 11
= 3x – 2y
Now, subtract 3x – y – 11 from 3x – 2y.
= 3x – 2y – (3x – y – 11)

= 4 + 3x + 5 – 4x + 2x2
= 4 + 5 + 3x – 4x + 2x2
= 9 – x + 2x2
= 2x2 – x + 9 … [equation 1]
Then, we have to find out the sum of 3x2 – 5x and – x2 + 2x + 5
= 3x2 – 5x + (-x2 + 2x + 5)
