x(a-5) + y(5-a)
You asked:
Evaluate the expression: \(x\left( a - 5 \right) + y\left( 5 - a \right)\)
MathBot Answer:
Evaluated
\(\displaystyle x\left( a - 5 \right) + y\left( 5 - a \right) = x \left(a - 5\right) + y \left(5 - a\right) \)
Expanded
\[x\left( a - 5 \right) + y\left( 5 - a \right) = a x - a y - 5 x + 5 y\]
Factored
\[x\left( a - 5 \right) + y\left( 5 - a \right) = \left(a - 5\right) \left(x - y\right)\]
