Answer 1

`\huge\text{Hey there!}`

`\huge\textbf{Solving for your equation:}`

`\mathbf4x^2`

`\mathbf(4)(9)`

`\mathsf - (2)(-3)- (9 -`

`\mathbf)`

`\mathbf= 36 -(-6) - (9 -`

`\mathbf(-3)(-3)`

`\mathbf)`

`\mathbf{= 42 - (9 - 9)}`

`\mathbf{= 42 - (0)}`

`\mathbf{= 42 - 0}`

`\mathbf{= 42}`

`\huge\textbf{Notice that your equation kept getting}\\\huge\textbf{getting smaller and smaller?}\\\\\\\huge\textbf{That's because we kept solving as we got}\\\huge\textbf{closer to your result and we got there}\\\huge\textbf{sooner than we thought :)}`

`\huge\textsf{ANYWAY!}`

`\huge\textsf{Therefore, the answer is: \boxed{\mathsf{Option\ D. 42}}}\huge\checkmark`
