Question

How do i simplify (x-5y)(x+3y)

Answer 1

Your answer will be
`x^(2) -2xy- 15y^(2)`

To get this you have to multiply individually across the parenthesis. Like so:

x(x+3y)
↓

`x^(2) +3xy`

-5y(x+3y)
↓

`-5xy-15y^(2)`

Now we add these two expressions together:
`x^(2) +3xy` +
`-5xy-15y^(2)`

Next, we combine like terms:
`x^(2) -2xy- 15y^(2)`

Since nothing else can be simplified, this is our answer. Hope this helped!!!
