Question

simplify 1. (2x+5y)(-3x-8)​

Answer 1

Start by multiplying
-6x^2-15xy-16x-40y
What else can be your answer

Answer 2

- (6x^2 + 16x + 15xy + 40y)

Step-by-step explanation:

• First of all, for the given expression, open up the brackets.
• Now, multiply each term with the next term as shown.
• Arrange the terms as per the power of the variables.
• Separate the negative sign from each term, by keeping the terms in a bracket

$(2x + 5y)\times (-3x - 8)$

= $(2x)\times (-3x) - (2x)\times(-8) - (5y)\times(3x) - (5y)\times(8)$

=$- 6x^2 - 16x -15xy - 40y$

= $- (6x^2 + 16x + 15xy + 40y)$ is the Answer !
