To multiply the binomials \((2x−5)(x+7)(2x−5)(x+7)\), follow these steps in the correct order:
- \((2x−5)(x+7)(2x−5)(x+7)\)
- \((2x)(x)+(2x)(7)+(−5)(x)+(−5)(7)\)
- \(2x^2 + 14x - 5x - 35\)
- \(2x^2 + 9x - 35\)
So the correct order is:
- (2x−5)(x+7)(2x−5)(x+7)
- (2x)(x)+(2x)(7)+(−5)(x)+(−5)(7)
- 2x^2 + 14x - 5x - 35
- 2x^2 + 9x - 35
