Calculate the difference:
(4x
2 - 60x + 1) - (4x
2 + 24)
Multiply each term in 4x
2 + 24 by -1
-1 x (4x
2 + 24) = -4x
2 - 24
Collect all of our terms:
4x
2 - 60x + 1 - 4x
2 - 24
Now group all of our x
2 terms:
4x
2 - 4x
2 = 0x
2
Now group all of our x terms:
-60x
Now group all of our constant terms:
1 - 24 = -23
Build our answer:
- 60x - 23
