Step-by-step explanation:
_____________________________________________________
Given:
_____________________________________________________
" (2x − 2y) (2y + 8) " ; Simplify .
_____________________________________________________
We starting by "expanding" the expression.
_____________________________________________________
Note: " (a + b)(c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd " ;
_____________________________________________________
→ (2x * 2y) + (2x * 8) + (-2y * 2y) + (-2y * 8) ;
= 4xy + 16x + (- 4y² ) + (-16y) ;
= 4xy + 16x − 4y² − 16y ;
→ which is: "Answer choice: [D]: " 4xy + 16x − 4y² − 16y " .
