Answer:

You are squaring x and -5 on the first equation, and on the second equation you are just squaring x and subtracting 5.

Explanation:

And since on the first equation x and -5 are in parenthesis that means that the square goes to both of them.

And the second one there is no parenthesis so the square only goes to the x.

I hope this helps you.
