Multiple Choice

Subtract the polynomials and simplify. $$\left( - \frac { 2 } { 5 } p ^ { 2 } - \frac { 1 } { 15 } p q + \frac { 4 } { 15 } q ^ { 2 } - 8 \right) - \left( \frac { 14 } { 15 } p ^ { 2 } + \frac { 2 } { 15 } p q + \frac { 1 } { 5 } q ^ { 2 } + 14 \right)$$

• A) \(- \frac { 4 } { 3 } p ^ { 2 } - \frac { 1 } { 5 } p q + \frac { 1 } { 15 } q ^ { 2 } - 22\)
• B) \(- \frac { 4 } { 3 } p ^ { 2 } + \frac { 1 } { 15 } p q + \frac { 7 } { 15 } q ^ { 2 } + 6\)
• C) \(- \frac { 4 } { 3 } p ^ { 2 } - \frac { 1 } { 5 } p q + \frac { 1 } { 15 } q ^ { 2 } + 6\)
• D) \(\frac { 8 } { 15 } p ^ { 2 } + \frac { 1 } { 15 } p q + \frac { 7 } { 15 } q ^ { 2 } + 6\)
