Answer

$2x^{3}+3x^{2}+7x-5$

Work Step by Step

The sum of $(4x^{3}+x^{2})$ and ($-x^{3}+7x-3)$ is $ \begin{array}{lllll} & 4x^{3} & +x^{2} & & \\ +( & -x^{3} & & +7x & -3)\\ \hline & & & & \\ = & 3x^{3} & +x^{2} & +7x & -3\\ & & & & \end{array} $ Subtract $(x^{3}-2x^{2}+2)$ from the above sum; $ \begin{array}{lllll} & 3x^{3} & +x^{2} & +7x & -3\\ -( & x^{3} & -2x^{2} & & +2)\\ \hline & & & & \\ = & 2x^{3} & +3x^{2} & +7x & -5 \end{array} $
