Question

Simplify the product using the distributive property. (4h – 5)(5h – 3)

Answer 1

Answer:

$20h^2-37h + 15$

Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property says that:

$a\cdot (b+c) = a\cdot b+ a\cdot c$

Given the expression: $(4h-5)(5h-3)$

Distribute the first term and second term of the first expression to the second expression, we have;

$4h(5h-3)-5(5h-3)$

Apply the distributive property:

$20h^2-12h - 25h + 15$

Combine like terms;

$20h^2-37h + 15$

Therefore, the simplified product of the given expression using distributive property is $20h^2-37h + 15$

Answer 2

20h^2−37h+15 this is your answer
