Question

$$-(t+5) \times (t-20)$$

Evaluate

$-\left(t-20\right)\left(t+5\right)$

Solution Steps

To find the opposite of $t+5$, find the opposite of each term.

$$\left(-t-5\right)\left(t-20\right)$$

Apply the distributive property by multiplying each term of $-t-5$ by each term of $t-20$.

$$-t^{2}+20t-5t+100$$

Combine $20t$ and $-5t$ to get $15t$.

$$-t^{2}+15t+100$$
