Question

expand =(p+8) ( p -3​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

$(p + 8)(p - 3) \\ p {}^{2} - 3p + 8p - 24 \\ p {}^{2} + 5p - 24$

Answer 2

Answer:

Let us simplify the expression, we get

(p + 8) (p – 3) = p2 + [(8) + (- 3)] p + [(8) × (- 3)]

By using the logic,

(x + a) (x + b) = x2 + (a + b)x +(a × b)

Here, x = p, a = 8, b = -3

Now, substitute the value we get

= p2 + (8 – 3)p + (- 24)

= p2 + 8p – 3p – 24

= p2 + 5p – 24

∴ (p + 8) (p – 3) = p2 + 5p – 24
