Question

BASIC ALGEBRA PLZZZ HELP (x+y)(x-y)

Answer 1

Answer:

$x^2-y^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression $(x+y)(x-y)$

We can distribute this using the FOIL technique

This would leave us with

$x^2+xy-xy-y^2$

Then we can combine like terms to leave us with

$x^2-y^2$

Answer 2

Steps:

(x+y)(x-y)

x^2-xy+xy-y^2

Multiplying the brackets together.

negative and positive= negative

= x^2-y^2

Answer is x^2-y^2
