Learn how to subtract two quadratic expressions from one another

The video tutorial explains how to subtract two polynomials, focusing on ensuring they are in descending order. It covers two methods: rewriting the problem vertically and distributing the negative sign to convert it into an addition problem. The instructor emphasizes the importance of distributing the negative sign to avoid common mistakes. Both methods yield the same result, and the instructor provides verbal guidance to reinforce understanding.
