First Part:
For every parenthesis with a plus sign to its left, you can eliminate the parenthesis (take into account that plus×minus=minus)
a + a - b - a + b
Then you add like terms. This means you add/subtract a with a and same with b and b (I'll organize the terms in alphabetical order but it's not neccesary)
a + a - a - b + b
Since a - a =0 and b - b = 0,
a + 0 + 0
Answer: a
Second part
Since you have a minus to the left of a parenthesis, you have to change the signs of all the terms inside the parenthesis before you eliminate the parenthesis.

Answer: 2a^2
Any triangle with one angle equal to 90⁰ produces a Pythagoras triangle and the Pythagoras equation can be applied in the triangle.
<h3>What is the Pythagoras Theorem?</h3>
The Pythagoras theorem states that if a triangle is right-angled (90 degrees), then the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
In △ABD and △ACB,
∠A = ∠A (common)
∠ADB = ∠ABC (both are right angles)
Thus, △ABD ∼ △ACB (by AA similarity criterion)
Similarly, we can prove △BCD ∼ △ACB.
Thus △ABD ∼ △ACB,
Therefore, AD/AB = AB/AC.
We can say that AD × AC = AB².
Similarly, △BCD ∼ △ACB.
Therefore,
CD/BC = BC/AC.
We can also say that
CD × AC = BC².
Adding these 2 equations, we get
AB² + BC² = (AD × AC) + (CD × AC)
AB² + BC² =AC(AD +DC)
AB² + BC² = AC²
Hence proved
Thus, any triangle with one angle equal to 90⁰ produces a Pythagoras triangle and the Pythagoras equation can be applied in the triangle.

Answer:
(-9/7,-26/7)
[more detailed at the bottom of the explanation]
Step-by-step explanation:
I am assuming that this is a system of equations...
So, knowing that y is equal to x + 5, you would plug that in the second equation and find x. Then you would plug x and find y.
—————
Step 1)
Equation 1:
y = (x + 5)
Equation 2:
5x + 2y = 1
Equation 2 can also be written as:
5x + 2(x+5) = 1
I wrote x+5 instead of y because the first equation tells us that y is equal to x + 5.
—————
Step 2)
Solve for x .
5x + 2(x+5) = 1
5x + 2x + 10 = 1
7x + 10 = 1
7x = 1 - 10
7x = -9
x = -9/7
—————
Step 3)
Plug the x value back in the first equation.
y = -9/7 + 5
y = -26/7
—————
Solution:
x = -9/7
y = -26/7
In ordered pair form:
(-9/7,-26/7)
