Equation: (g-P)(x) = g(x) - P(x) Substitute the given functions into the equation: (g-P)(x) = x + 5 - (x^2 + 3x + 2) Distribute the negative sign to the quantities in the parenthesis: (g-P)(x) = x + 5 - x^2 - 3x - 2 Simplify: (g-P)(x) = -x^2 - 2x + 3 Therefore, the difference of the functions g and P is -x^2 - 2x + 3.
