Let's solve step by step
So all we need to do is simplify the equation
<span><span>(<span>5x − 8</span>)</span><span>(<span>2x + 4</span>)
</span></span><span>= <span><span>(<span>5x + −8</span>)</span><span>(<span>2x + 4</span>)
</span></span></span><span>= <span><span><span><span><span>(5x)</span><span>(2x) </span></span>+ <span><span>(5x)</span>(4) </span></span>+ <span><span>(−8)</span><span>(2x) </span></span></span>+ <span><span>(−8)</span><span>(4)
</span></span></span></span><span>= <span><span><span><span>10x^2 </span>+ 20x </span>− 16x </span>− 32
</span></span><span>= <span><span><span>10x^2 </span>+ 4x </span>− <span>32
Therefore the simplified form of this is </span></span></span>10x^2 + 4x − 32
Hope this helps! - Alyssa
