Answer:  25x² - 64
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
   (5x + 8)(5x - 8)
=        5x(5x - 8)   +    8(5x - 8)
=      25x² - 40x    +    40x - 64
=      25x²         + 0x           - 64
=              
NOTE: descending powers means the biggest exponent goes first, then the next biggest exponent, etc.
For example: x⁴ then x³ then x² then x then the number (which is actually x⁰)

Notice that if you go forward, the common ratio is 5.  Each new term is found by mult. the previous term by 5.
If, on the other hand, you go backwards (terms decreasing), then you divide a term to find what the previous term was.
Here, divide 1 by 5 to find the first term.  It's 1/5.
