Solve the problem.
-$( x - 8 y ) ( x - 5 y )$
A) $x ^ { 2 } - 13 x y + 40 y ^ { 2 }$
B) $x ^ { 2 } - 16 x y + 40 y ^ { 2 }$
C) $x ^ { 2 } - 13 x y - 13 y ^ { 2 }$
D) $x - 13 x y + 40 y$

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Using the FOIL method for multiplying two binomials, $(x - 8y)(x - 5y)$ gives $x^2 - 5xy - 8xy + 40y^2$, which simplifies to $x^2 - 13xy + 40y^2$.

Solve the Problem (x−8y)(x−5y)( x - 8 y ) ( x - 5 y )(x−8y)(x−5y)
