Question

rewrite the following expression as the product of two binomials: (x-2)(4x-3)-(x-2)(3x-8)

Answer 1

rewrite the following expression as the product of two binomials:

(x-2)(4x-3)-(x-2)(3x-8)

ANSWER:

Steps:

(x-2)(4x-3)-(x-2)(3x-8)

Expand: -(x-2)(4x-3): -3x+14x-16

=4x^2-11x+6-3x^2+14x-16

Simplify: 4x^2-11x+6-3x^2+14x-16: x^2+3x-10

=x^2+3x-10
