Let ‘E’ be the required expression. Then, we have

x2 – xy + y2– x + y + 3 – E = – x2 + 3y2 – 4xy + 1

Therefore, E = (x2 – xy + y2– x + y + 3) – (- x2 + 3y2 – 4xy + 1)

= x2 – xy + y2– x + y + 3 + x2 – 3y2 + 4xy – 1

Collecting positive and negative like terms together, we get

= x2 + x2– xy + 4xy + y2– 3y2 – x + y + 3 – 1

= 2x2+ 3xy- 2y2– x + y + 2
