Do you remember that we cannot add fractions when they have unlike denominators? We can onyl add fractions as long as they have the same denominator!
So here's the big idea: fractions must have the same denominator.
If we multiply the first fraction by 2, then both fractions will have the same denominator. *
* <em>Why 2??</em>
<em />
- Because:
We need to find the least common multiple of 3 and 6, which is 6. Next, what should 3 be multiplied by to result in 6? That's right, 2.
Also, we can only multiply the denominator by 2 as long as we multiply the numerator by 2!
So that's why we multiply the whole fraction by 2

The product of the factors (5x − 8) and (5x + 8) is 25x² − 64. Then the correct option is C.
<h3>What is polynomial?</h3>
Polynomial is an algebraic expression that consists of variables and coefficients. Variable are called unknown. We can apply arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, etc. But not divisible by variable.
One factor of the polynomial is given which is 5x − 8.
Then the polynomial will be
Let the other factor be 5x + 8
Then their product will be
(5x − 8)(5x + 8)
(5x)² − 8²
25x² − 64

Answer:
the slope of MN= -5-1/3-(-6)=-2/3
two lines are parallel>> slopes are equal
equation of line = (y-y'=m(x-x'))
therefore, y-1= -2/3(x-6)
y-1 = -2/3x + 4
y+2/3x=5
