Question

find each product.
(7) ((x - 4)(8x + 8))

Explanation:

Step1: Apply distributive property (FOIL)

Multiply the First terms: \(x \times 8x = 8x^2\)
Multiply the Outer terms: \(x \times 8 = 8x\)
Multiply the Inner terms: \(-4 \times 8x = -32x\)
Multiply the Last terms: \(-4 \times 8 = -32\)

Step2: Combine like terms

Combine the \(x\)-terms: \(8x - 32x = -24x\)
So the expression becomes \(8x^2 - 24x - 32\)

Answer:

\(8x^2 - 24x - 32\)
