Answer:

(5x+4)(5x-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

25x^{2} -10x-24

Separate into two parts, first realizing that the only two factor pairs for 25 are 5 and 5 or 1 and 25. Using 5 and 5 makes the most sense, so

(5x      )(5x     )

The other two numbers need to multiply to -24 and add up to -10.

Pairs that muliply to 24 could be 1 and 24, 2 and 12, 3 and 8, and 4 and 6. The more you factor the easier it will be to quickly discern which numbers to use. In this case, the right pair is 4 and 6. Because it needs to add up to -10, it should be 4 and -6 (because multiplying out, -30 + 20 = -10).

Thus, the final factored equation is (5x+4)(5x-6). You can check this by FOILing and making sure you get the original equation.

Q=7m+3n\\R=11-2m\\S=n+5\\T=-m-3n+8\\\\R-S+T=(11-2m)-(n+5)+(-m-3n+8)\\\\=11-2m-n-5-m-3n+8\\\\=(-2m-m)+(-n-3n)+(11-5+8)\\\\=\boxed{-3m-4n+14}
