Question

Question:

Answer 1

Answer:

Step 1:

Addition is commutative

A + B = B + A

So the terms can be rearranged

Step 4:

2x(2x - 3) + 5(2x - 3)

Since (2x - 3) is common to both terms,

You can take it common

(2x - 3)(2x + 5)

This can be proved verified using distribution property

(2x - 3)(2x + 5) is the same as

(2x + 5)(2x - 3) because multiplication is commutative
