In 1–2 sentences, explain why the following operation is a closed system under subtraction.

(9x2+17x+13)−(2x2+12x+11)

(2 points)

The operation is a closed system under subtraction because when subtracting two polynomials, the result is also a polynomial.

The operation of subtraction is a closed system because when subtracting polynomials, the result is always another polynomial.
