Step-by-step explanation:

The product of the sum of a and b and their difference:

(a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²

Proof:

L = (a + b)(a - b) use FOIL

L = (a)(a) + (a)(-b) + (b)(a) + (b)(-b)

L = a² - ab + ab - b² combine like terms

L = a² - b² + (-ab + ab)

L = a² - b²

R = a² - b²

L = R

Solve for x. −5(x−4)=−30 Enter your answer in the box.

saveliy_v [14]

First divide both sides by - 5,

$x - 4 = 6$

Move the constant to the right side of the equation and change its sign (-4 => +4)

$x = 6 + 4$

Add the numbers,

$x = 10$
