Answer» Answer: x² - 34X + 225Step-by-step EXPLANATION: (x+3) (x-3) (x+5) (x-5) [(x+3)(x-3)] * [(x+5)(x-5)] By using identity: (a+b)(a-b) = a² - b² { In both [(x+3)(x-3)] and [(x+5)(x-5)] } [(x+3)(x-3)] * [(x+5)(x-5)] = (x² - 3²) * (x² - 5²) = (x² - 9) * (x² - 25) Now, by using identity: (a + m)(a + N) = a² + (m+n)a + mn { On (x² - 9)(x² - 25) } (x² - 9)(x² - 25) = x² + [-9 + (-25)]x + (-9)(-25) = x² + (-34)x + 225 (x² - 9)(x² - 25) = x² - 34x + 225Note: (*) sign represents here for multiplication. Hope this helps... |
