(58x + 60y) - (10x + 32y)

First, simplify to get rid of parentheses.
\(58x + 60y - 10x - 32y\)
Second, collect the like terms and put them into the parentheses (x's and y's).
\((58x - 10x) + (60y - 32y)\)
Third, subtract 58 - 10 to get 48.
\(48x + (60y - 32y)\)
Fourth, subtract 60 - 32 to get 28.
\(48x + 28y\)

Answer: B) 48x + 28y
