|-5| is equivalent to 5, since that is how far -5 is from 0.

So, the question is simplified to: How far away is -5 from 5?

We get 5-(-5)=10.

Remember, absolute value is always positive (expect for 0) and the distance between two numbers is always positive (expect for 0).

Expand and simplify (x+5)(x-2)

salantis [7]

Answer:

${x}^{2} - x - 12 = (x + 3)(x - 4)$

${x}^{2} + 3x + 2 = (x + 2)(x + 1)$

${x}^{2} + 3x - 10 = (x + 5)(x - 2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

F [First terms] - Multiply the first terms in each set of parentheses FARTHEST TO THE LEFT

O [Outside terms] - Multiply the first term in the first set of parentheses FARTHEST TO THE LEFT by the last term in the second set of parentheses FARTHEST TO THE RIGHT

I [Inside terms] - Multiply the last term in the first set of parentheses FARTHEST TO THE RIGHT by the first term in the second set of parentheses FARTHEST TO THE LEFT

L [Last terms] - Multiply the last terms in each set of parentheses FARTHEST TO THE RIGHT

${x}^{2} - x - 12 = {x}^{2} - 4x + 3x - 12$
