(Distribute the minus sign of the subtrahend in each term.)
= 8r⁶s³ – 9r⁵s⁴ + 3r⁴s⁵ – 2r⁴s⁵ + 5r³s⁶ + 4r⁵s⁴
(Add or subtract like terms.)
= 8r⁶s³ – 5r⁵s⁴ + r⁴s⁵ + 5r³s⁶
(If you want to factor out, then...)
= r³s³ (8r³ – 5r²s + rs² + 5s³)

Step-by-step explanation:
In an isosceles triangle, two sides are equal to each other. So, we know that the third side is either 6 or 15 inches.
If the third side is 6 inches, it would not make a triangle. The sum of any to sides of a triangle must be larger than the third side. However, 6+6 is LESS than 15, so 6 inches would not be the answer.
By process of elimination, the third side is 15 inches. Good luck!
