simplify 6(ax-2by) plus 2(2bx-ay)-5(ax-by)-by
You asked:
Simplify the expression: \(6 \cdot \left(a x - 2 b y\right) + 2 \cdot \left(2 b x - a y\right) - 5 \cdot \left(a x - b y\right) - b y\)
MathBot Answer:
Simplified:
\[ 6 \cdot \left(a x - 2 b y\right) + 2 \cdot \left(2 b x - a y\right) - 5 \cdot \left(a x - b y\right) - b y = a x - 2 a y + 4 b x - 8 b y \]
Expanded:
\[ 6 \cdot \left(a x - 2 b y\right) + 2 \cdot \left(2 b x - a y\right) - 5 \cdot \left(a x - b y\right) - b y = a x - 2 a y + 4 b x - 8 b y \]
Factored:
\[ 6 \cdot \left(a x - 2 b y\right) + 2 \cdot \left(2 b x - a y\right) - 5 \cdot \left(a x - b y\right) - b y = \left(a + 4 b\right) \left(x - 2 y\right) \]
