Answer:

12(x-1) (x-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

15(x - 4)(x -1)-3(x + 4)(x - 1)

We can factor out a 3 from both terms

3 ( 5(x - 4)(x -1)-(x + 4)(x - 1))

We can also factor out (x-1)

3(x-1) [5(x - 4)-(x + 4)]

Distribute inside the brackets

3(x-1) [5x-20 -x-4]

Combine like terms

3(x-1)[4x-24]

We can factor out a 4

3(x-1) 4[x-6]

12(x-1) (x-6)

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

$(-7 + 3i)^{2} + (-2 + 8i) = 38 - 36i$

Step-by-step explanation:

(-7 + 3i)(-7 + 3i) + (-2 + 8i)

$49 - 21i -21i + 9i^{2} = 49 - 42i -9 = 40 - 42i$

40 - 42i + (-2 + 8i)

38 - 36i
