The correct answer is

60xy

Let's simplify the expression: (5x+3y)^2 - (5x-3y)^2

This expression is in the form of a difference of squares:

(a^2 - b^2) = (a - b)(a + b)

Here, let a = (5x + 3y) and b = (5x - 3y).

This means the expression can be written as:

((5x + 3y) - (5x - 3y))((5x + 3y) + (5x - 3y))

Simplify inside the brackets:

  • The first bracket: (5x + 3y) - (5x - 3y) = 5x + 3y - 5x + 3y = 6y
  • The second bracket: (5x + 3y) + (5x - 3y) = 5x + 3y + 5x - 3y = 10x

Now, the expression simplifies to:

(6y)(10x) = 60xy

The correct answer is therefore: 60xy.

This simplification confirms the correct option is 60xy. The other options are incorrect calculations of the difference of squares.
