    do you wanna like...factor them?


    for example #3 would be like (a + c)(a + b)

    or...evaluate? or... what o.o

    without instructions my guess for everything is

    1) idunnowatdisis

    2) (2x + y) (x - 3y) ~ oh wait scratch that you get -3y^2 not +3y^2. wadaheck. you cant factor it. are you sure it isnt -3y^2 instead of +3y^2 at the end?

    3) (a + c)(a + b)

    4) (b + c)(b + a)


    XDDD

    I'll guess that you have to factor:
    1)a5+a3-a2-1=a3(a2+1)-1(a2+1) = (a3-1)(a2+1)=(a-1)(a2+a+1)(a2+1)
    2) 2x2-5xy+3y2=(2x+3y)(x+y)
    3) a2+ab+ac+ab=a2+2ab+ac= a(a+2b+c)
    b2+ab+bc+ac = b2+bc+ab+ac=b(b+c)+a(b+c)=(a+b)(b+c)
