Factorise the following: 5p 2 - 8pq - 10p + 16q

5p 2 - 8pq - 10p + 16q = 5p 2 - 10p - 8pq + 16q = 5p(p - 2) - 8q(p - 2) = (5p - 8q)(p - 2). Hence, 5p 2 - 8pq - 10p + 16q = (5p - 8q)(p - 2)

5p² - 8pq - 10p + 16q

= 5p² - 10p - 8pq + 16q

= 5p(p - 2) - 8q(p - 2)

= (5p - 8q)(p - 2).

Hence, 5p² - 8pq - 10p + 16q = (5p - 8q)(p - 2)
