Answer

$\color{blue}{y^6-18y^2+8y}$

Work Step by Step

Distribute $2$ to obtain: $=2(3y^6)-2(9y^2)+2(2y)-(5y^6-4y) \\=6y^6-18y^2+4y-(5y^6-4y)$ Subtract each term of the binomial to obtain: $=6y^6-18y^2+4y-5y^6-(-4y) \\=6y^6-18y^2+4y-5y^6+4y$ Combine like terms to obtain: $=(6y^6-5y^6)-18y^2+(4y+4y) \\=(6-5)y^6-18y^2+(4+4)y \\=\color{blue}{y^6-18y^2+8y}$
