Solving (x+8)(x-10) using the Identity
We can use the difference of squares identity to solve the product of (x+8)(x-10).
The difference of squares identity states: (a+b)(a-b) = a² - b²
Applying this to our problem:
- Let a = x and b = 10
- Substitute these values into the identity: (x+8)(x-10) = x² - 10²
- Simplify: x² - 10² = x² - 100
Therefore, the solution of (x+8)(x-10) using the difference of squares identity is x² - 100.
