Answer :

19

=================

Use the identity:

  • (a - b)² = a² - 2ab + b²

Applying this to (x - y)(x - y), we get:

  • x² - 2xy + y²

Rearranging and substituting the given conditions into this expansion:

  • x² - 2xy + y² =
  • x² + y² - 2xy  =
  • 25 - 2*3 =
  • 25 - 6 =
  • 19

Therefore, the result of the expansion is 19.
