Q. Factor completely:\newline(5x4)(2x+3)(2x+3)2(4x5) (5 x-4)(2 x+3)-(2 x+3)^{2}(4 x-5) \newlineAnswer:
  1. Distribute Common Factor: Distribute the common factor (2x+3)(2x+3) in the expression.\newlineWe have the expression (5x4)(2x+3)(2x+3)2(4x5)(5x-4)(2x+3) - (2x+3)^2(4x-5). Notice that (2x+3)(2x+3) is a common factor in both terms. We can factor it out to simplify the expression.\newlineCalculation: (2x+3)[(5x4)(2x+3)(4x5)](2x+3)[(5x-4) - (2x+3)(4x-5)]
  2. Expand Squared Term: Expand the squared term and distribute the negative sign.\newlineWe need to expand (2x+3)2(2x+3)^2 and then distribute the negative sign through the resulting expression.\newlineCalculation: (2x+3)2=(2x+3)(2x+3)=4x2+6x+6x+9=4x2+12x+9(2x+3)^2 = (2x+3)(2x+3) = 4x^2 + 6x + 6x + 9 = 4x^2 + 12x + 9\newlineNow distribute the negative sign: (4x2+12x+9)=4x212x9-(4x^2 + 12x + 9) = -4x^2 - 12x - 9
  3. Substitute Expanded Term: Substitute the expanded squared term back into the expression.\newlineNow we substitute the expanded and negated squared term back into the expression we obtained after factoring out (2x+3)(2x+3).\newlineCalculation: (2x+3)[(5x4)(4x2+12x+9)(4x5)](2x+3)[(5x-4) - (4x^2 + 12x + 9)(4x-5)]
  4. Distribute Quadratic Term: Distribute (4x5)(4x-5) through the quadratic term.\newlineWe need to distribute (4x5)(4x-5) through the quadratic term (4x2+12x+9)(4x^2 + 12x + 9).\newlineCalculation: (4x5)(4x2+12x+9)=4x(4x2+12x+9)5(4x2+12x+9)((4x-5)(4x^2 + 12x + 9) = 4x(4x^2 + 12x + 9) - 5(4x^2 + 12x + 9)(\newline= 16x^3 + 48x^2 + 36x - 20x^2 - 60x - 45(\newline\)= 16x^3 + 28x^2 - 24x - 45\)
  5. Combine Distributed Terms: Combine the distributed terms with the remaining term inside the brackets.\newlineNow we combine the result from the previous step with the remaining term (5x4)(5x-4) inside the brackets.\newlineCalculation: (2x+3)[(5x-4) - (16x^3 + 28x^2 - 24x - 45)]\(\newline= (2x+3)(5x - 4 - 16x^3 - 28x^2 + 24x + 45)\)
  6. Combine Like Terms: Combine like terms inside the brackets.\newlineWe need to combine like terms inside the brackets to simplify the expression further.\newlineCalculation: (2x+3)(16x328x2+(5x+24x)4+45)(2x+3)(-16x^3 - 28x^2 + (5x + 24x) - 4 + 45)\newline= (2x+3)(16x328x2+29x+41)(2x+3)(-16x^3 - 28x^2 + 29x + 41)
  7. Factor Out Common Factor: Factor out the common factor (2x+3)(2x+3) completely.\newlineWe have already factored out the common factor (2x+3)(2x+3) in Step 11, and now we have the expression simplified inside the brackets. The expression is now completely factored.\newlineCalculation: (2x+3)(16x328x2+29x+41)(2x+3)(-16x^3 - 28x^2 + 29x + 41)
