Answer

$t^3-5t^2-t$

Work Step by Step

Removing the grouping symbols and then combining like terms, the given expression, $ (5t^3-3t^2+2t)-(4t^3+2t^2+3t) ,$ simplifies to \begin{array}{l}\require{cancel} 5t^3-3t^2+2t-4t^3-2t^2-3t \\\\= (5t^3-4t^3)+(-3t^2-2t^2)+(2t-3t) \\\\= t^3-5t^2-t .\end{array}
