Solution

To solve this problem, you need to subtract each term in the second polynomial from the corresponding term in the first polynomial. Here's how you do it:

Step 1: Write down the two polynomials:

5x² - 6x + 5 (First Polynomial) -x² - x + 8 (Second Polynomial)

Step 2: Subtract the second polynomial from the first:

(5x² - (-x²)) - (6x - (-x)) + (5 - 8)

Step 3: Simplify each term:

(5x² + x²) - (6x + x) + (5 - 8)

Step 4: Combine like terms:

6x² - 7x - 3

So, the answer is -6x² - 7x - 3, which is not listed in the options. Therefore, the correct answer is "None of the above".
