    The correct answer is option B.

    5x⁵ + - 8x³ + x² + 5x - 1

    Step-by-step explanation:

    It is given that,

    (x³ + 2x⁴ + 5x⁵ - 2x - 1) - (-7x - x² + 9x³ + 2x⁴)

    To find the subtraction result

    (x³ + 2x⁴ + 5x⁵ - 2x - 1) - (-7x - x² + 9x³ + 2x⁴)

    = x³ + 2x⁴ + 5x⁵ - 2x - 1 + 7x + x² - 9x³ - 2x⁴)

    = 5x⁵ + 2x⁴ - 2x⁴ + x³ - 9x³ + x² - 2x + 7x - 1

    = 5x⁵ + - 8x³ + x² + 5x - 1

    The correct answer is option B.

    5x⁵ + - 8x³ + x² + 5x - 1
