( | 20 | − | 2 | x | ) | ( | 24 | − | 2 | x | ) | = | 320 |
Left side of the equation = | 20 | ( | 24 | − | 2 | x | ) | − | 2 | x | ( | 24 | − | 2 | x | ) |
= | 20 | × | 24 | − | 20 | × | 2 | x | − | 2 | x | ( | 24 | − | 2 | x | ) |
= | 480 | − | 40 | x | − | 2 | x | ( | 24 | − | 2 | x | ) |
= | 480 | − | 40 | x | − | 2 | x | × | 24 | + | 2 | x | × | 2 | x |
= | 480 | − | 40 | x | − | 48 | x | + | 4 | x | x |
= | 480 | − | 88 | x | + | 4 | x | x |
480 | − | 88 | x | + | 4 | x | x | = | 320 |
