Q. Multiply. Write your answer in simplest form.

\newline

-\sqrt{5}(-6 - \sqrt{5})

Distribute and Multiply: Distribute $-\sqrt{5}$ to both terms inside the parentheses.-\sqrt{$5$}(\(-6 - \sqrt{ $5$ }) = -\sqrt{ $5$ }( $-6$ ) - \sqrt{ $5$ }(-\sqrt{ $5$ })
Multiply by $-6$ : Multiply $-\sqrt{5}$ by $-6$ . $-\sqrt{5}\cdot(-6) = 6\sqrt{5}$
Multiply by $-\sqrt{5}$ : Multiply $-\sqrt{5}$ by $-\sqrt{5}$ .
$-\sqrt{5}\times(-\sqrt{5})$
= $\sqrt{5}\times\sqrt{5}$
= $5$
Combine Results: Combine the results from Step $2$ and Step $3$ . $\newline$ $6\sqrt{5} + 5$
