You asked:

Evaluate the expression: a(x−y)−b(x−y)a\left( x - y \right) - b\left( x - y \right)

MathBot Answer:

Evaluated



a(x−y)−b(x−y)=a(x−y)−b(x−y)\displaystyle a\left( x - y \right) - b\left( x - y \right) = a \left(x - y\right) - b \left(x - y\right)

Expanded

a(x−y)−b(x−y)=xa−xb−ya+yba\left( x - y \right) - b\left( x - y \right) = x a - x b - y a + y b

Factored

a(x−y)−b(x−y)=(x−y)(a−b)a\left( x - y \right) - b\left( x - y \right) = \left(x - y\right) \left(a - b\right)
