Answer: 14x^2-93xy+60y^2 Hope that helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Expand by distributing terms
(20x-12y)(x-4y)-(3x-4y)(2x+3y)
2. Use the Foil method:(a+b)(c+d)= ac+ad+bc+bd
20x^2-80xy-12yx+48y^2-(3x-4y)(2x+3y)
3. Use the Foil method : (a+b)(c+d)= ac+ad+bc+bd
20x^2-80xy-12yx+48y^2-(6x^2+9xy-8yx-12y^2)
4. Remove parentheses 20x^2-80xy-12yx+48y^2-6x^2-9xy+ 8yx+12y^2
5. Collect like terms (20x^2-6x^2)+(-80xy-12xy-9xy+8xy)+(48y^2+12y^2)
6. Simplify.
And your answer would be 14x^2-93xy+60y^2
In 44 liquid quarts, there are 88 liquid pints. 2 pints per 1 quart. Hope this helps ;)
