So the question is asking: (x-4)(x-2)
because there is a bracket in between the two expressions it means we have to multiply them together: (x-4) x (x-2)
you can break down the question into smaller parts:
x multiply x
x multiply -2
-4 multiply x
-4 multiply -2
here are the answers:
x^2 (means x squared)
-2x
-4x
8 (because when you multiply two negative numbers it makes a positive)
now you put it into an expression (this is expanding):
x^2 - 2x - 4x + 8
to simplify it you collect like terms:
x^2 - 6x + 8
The above is the answer :)

Answer:
1.30 p.M.
Step-by-step explanation:
The factory whistle blowed at 1:00 p.M, and it blows every 30 minutes, so it will blow again at 1:30 p.M.
The clock tower chimed at 1.00 p.M., and it chimes every 15 minutes, so it will chime again at 1:15 p.M, and after that, it will chime again at 1:30 p.M.
So, you will hear them both at the same time at 1:30 p.M.
We can also solve this problem using LCM:
the least commom multiple between 15 and 30 is 30, so we just need to sum 30 to the inicial time (1:00 p.M.), so the time they will "find each other" again is 1.30 p.M.
