Notice that the 2 expressions have 2 common terms.
(r-s) is just (s-r) times (-1)
similarly
(t-s) is just (s-t) times (-1)
this means that :
(r-s) (t-s) + (s-r) (s-t)=-(s-r)[-(s-t)]+(s-r) (s-t)
the 2 minuses in the first multiplication cancel each other so we have:
-(s-r)[-(s-t)]+(s-r) (s-t)=(s-r) (s-t)+(s-r) (s-t)=2(s-r) (s-t)

Answer:
x = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
-5(x + 3) = 15
Distribute the -5
-5x -15 =15
Add 15 to each side
-5x-15+15 =15+15
-5x = 30
Divide each side by -5
-5x/-5 = 30/-5
x =-6
First: 7cm, 7cm, 11cm
second: 19cm, 3cm, 3cm
Answer:
w - 3.3 + -3.3 = 5.6 - 3.3
w = 2.3
the simplification performed in step 2 is invalid or incorrect
