10x-4x^2-(7x+y)=3x-6x^2

2x^2+7x=7x+y

2x^2=y

check...

(10x-4x^2)-(7x+2x^2)=3x-6x^2

3x-6x^2=3x-6x^2

1=1

Let

b----------> the missing term

we have

[tex](10x - 4x^{2} )- (7x + b) = 3x - 6x^{2}[/tex]

Combine like terms in the left side

[tex](10x-7x)+(-b - 4x^{2}) = 3x - 6x^{2}[/tex]

[tex](3x)+(-b - 4x^{2}) = 3x - 6x^{2}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex](-b - 4x^{2}) = - 6x^{2}[/tex]

[tex]b = 6x^{2}-4x^{2}[/tex]

[tex]b = 2x^{2}[/tex]

therefore

the answer is

the missing term is equal to [tex]2x^{2}[/tex]
