(5x-3)(4x+5) the last step you have to look at the two terms that you are adding together the 4x(5x-3) and the 5(5x-3) and see what is similar. well the whole bracket is the same the 5x-3 so factor that out and collect the other leftover terms so the 4x and the +5 and thats what goes in the second bracket
If the old man walks 2/3 of a mile in 1/2 an hour, you can find how many miles he walk in one hour by setting up a fraction where distance (miles) is the numerator and the denominator is time (hours). So, (2/3)/(1/2) is the fraction. Now, we have to figure out how to make the denominator one, and we do that by multiplying is by 2. Whatever you do to the denominator you have to do to the numerator, so multiply 2/3 by 2 and 1/2 by 2.
(1/2) x 2 = 1 and (2/3) x 2 = 4/3 or 1 1/3
the old man walked 1 1/3 miles per hour
It is two easy to take away 5
X=12 12(y)=-96 y=-8
12-8=4
