Question

determine if the problem is done correctly explain your reasoning Multiply the polynomials using the distribution method: (2x - 3)(4x + 8) 2x (4x+8) -3 (4x+8) 8 x 2 +168 - 12x - 24 8x2 + 4x=24

Answer 1

Multiply the polynomials using the distribution method:

$\begin{gathered} (2x-3)(4x+8) \\ =2x\cdot(4x+8)-3\cdot(4x+8) \\ =8x^2+16x-12x-24 \\ =8x^2+4x-24 \end{gathered}$
