"Subtract A from B" is the same as "Find B - A". First, you need to distribute the negative though the terms of the A part, then combine the results for like terms (terms of the same power of x).
Explanation:

(- 18 x^{2} - 13 x - 14) - (- 16 x^{2} - 19 x - 10)

(- 18 x^{2} - 13 x - 14) + (16 x^{2} + 19 x + 10)

(- 18 x^{2} + 16 x^{2}) + (- 13 x + 19 x) + (- 14 + 10) =

- 2 x^{2} + 6 x - 4

Explanation:
Subtracting

(- 16 x^{2} - 19 x - 10)

from

(- 18 x^{2} - 13 x - 14)

is same as subtracting 5 from 49. (I just mean any two real numbers).
We do something like this:
=49-5
=44
Similarly, we do the subtraction of polynomials but only between numbers with same coefficients.
Well
