Question

(-x-5)² what is the answer of this... Tomorrow is my exam I need help

Answer 1

x= -5 is answer of the question because it is actually square of (x+5)

Answer 2

The answer is x^2 + 10x + 25. This is the final answer, as there’s nothing more that can be calculated.

It’s not too hard to calculate, let me explain.

(-x-5)^2

Or (-x-5)(-x-5)

Let’s break it down.

-x * -x = x^2

-x * -5 = 5x

-5 * -x = 5x

-5 * -5 = 25

We’ve now got x^2 + 5x + 5x + 25, we can work it out further to

x^2 + 10x + 25

Now there’s nothing more that you can calculate.

Did I solve your question? I sure hope so. If you want another explanation, feel free to ask me!
