Q. What is (qs)(x)?(q*s)(x) ?\newline q(x)=5x+2q(x)=5x+2 \newlines(x)=4x+5s(x)=-4x+5\newlineWrite your answer as a polynomial or a rational function.\newline
  1. Identify functions: Identify the functions to be multiplied. q(x)=5x+2q(x) = 5x + 2 s(x)=4x+5s(x) = -4x + 5
  2. Multiply functions: Multiply the functions q(x)q(x) and s(x)s(x).(qs)(x)=(5x+2)(4x+5)(q*s)(x) = (5x + 2)(-4x + 5)
  3. Distribute terms: Distribute each term in the first polynomial to each term in the second polynomial.\newline(qs)(x)=5x(4x)+5x5+2(4x)+25(q*s)(x) = 5x*(-4x) + 5x*5 + 2*(-4x) + 2*5
  4. Simplify expression: Simplify the expression by performing the multiplications.\newline(qs)(x)=20x2+25x8x+10(q*s)(x) = -20x^2 + 25x - 8x + 10
  5. Combine like terms: Combine like terms.\newline(qs)(x)=20x2+17x+10(q*s)(x) = -20x^2 + 17x + 10
