Answer:
The simplified expression is
20x^2 - 33x - 27
Step-by-step explanation:
(6x - 9 - 2x)(8 + 5x - 5)
We must first rewrite the expression as a product of two binomials.
This can be done by adding like terms
(6x - 9 - 2x)(8 + 5x - 5)
We have,
(4x-9)(5x+3)
Multiplying the resulting binomial expression
(4x-9)(5x+3)
(20x^2+12x-45x-27)
Add the like terms
20x^2-33x-27
The simplified expression is
20x^2 - 33x - 27
Twenty x squared minus thirty-three x minus twenty-seven
