Step-by-Step Solution

Let's solve this problem step by step.

Step 1: Apply the distributive property to the left-hand side.
The expression (2a+b)(3b?)(2a+b)(3b-?) expands to:

(2a+b)(3b?)=2a(3b?)+b(3b?) (2a + b)(3b - ?) = 2a(3b - ?) + b(3b - ?)

Step 2: Distribute each term:

  • First 2a(3b)2a(3b) gives 6ab6ab.
  • Then 2a(?)2a(-?) gives 2a?-2a\cdot?.
  • Next b(3b)b(3b) gives 3b23b^2.
  • Finally b(?)b(-?) gives b?-b\cdot?.

In equation form:

=6ab+3b22a?b? = 6ab + 3b^2 - 2a? - b?

Now, compare this with the given equation: 6ab+5a+2b6ab + 5a + 2b.

Notice that 3b23b^2 doesn't present on the right-hand side, indicating no term in b2b^2 should exist. Moreover, right-hand terms 5a5a and 2b2b have no zero counterparts on complex variables (polynomial formation), indicating inconsistencies in all forms with possible simple polynomial inequivalence.

Step 3: Analysis shows inability to correlate purely intuitively with missing match coefficients specifically implies an inadequacy here in probabilistic assumptions, leading us to:

Therefore, the solution to the problem with the provided options is No adequate solution.

Answer

No adequate solution
