You can put this solution on YOUR website!
%28-5x%5E2%2B4y%29%285x%5E2%2B5y%2Bz%29 Start with the given expression.


-5x%5E2%285x%5E2%2B5y%2Bz%29%2B4y%285x%5E2%2B5y%2Bz%29 Expand.


Distribute.


-25x%5E4-25x%5E2y-5x%5E2z%2B20x%5E2y%2B20y%5E2%2B4yz Multiply.


-25x%5E4-5x%5E2y-5x%5E2z%2B20y%5E2%2B4yz Now combine like terms.


So %28-5x%5E2%2B4y%29%285x%5E2%2B5y%2Bz%29 expands to -25x%5E4-5x%5E2y-5x%5E2z%2B20y%5E2%2B4yz.


In other words, %28-5x%5E2%2B4y%29%285x%5E2%2B5y%2Bz%29=-25x%5E4-5x%5E2y-5x%5E2z%2B20y%5E2%2B4yz.


So the answer looks like it is D) (assuming you forgot the 'y')
