Answer:

The answer is 4x³ + 2x² + 2x = 2x(2x² + x + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ f(x) = 9x³ + 2x² - 5x + 4

∵ g(x) = 5x³ - 7x + 4

∴ f(x) - g(x) = (9x³ + 2x² - 5x + 4) - (5x³ + 0 - 7x + 4)

                 = (9x³ - 5x³) + (2x² - 0) + (-5x + 7x) + (4 - 4)

                 = 4x³ + 2x² + 2x = 2x(2x² + x + 1)
