Question

Simplify the polynomial expressions by combining like terms, and then multiply the resulting

binomial expressions to find their product.
(6x - 9 - 2x)(8 + 5x - 5)​

Answer 1

20x^2 - 33x - 27

Explanation:

Answer 2

The simplified expression is

20x^2 - 33x - 27

Explanation:

(6x - 9 - 2x)(8 + 5x - 5)​

We must first rewrite the expression as a product of two binomials.

This can be done by adding like terms

(6x - 9 - 2x)(8 + 5x - 5)​

We have,

(4x-9)(5x+3)

Multiplying the resulting binomial expression

(4x-9)(5x+3)

(20x^2+12x-45x-27)

Add the like terms

20x^2-33x-27

The simplified expression is

20x^2 - 33x - 27

Twenty x squared minus thirty-three x minus twenty-seven
