Question

Find the product.

(-d + 4)(-d - 4)\

Answer 1

D^2 - 16…………………………..

Answer 2

d^2 - 16.

Explanation:

First, let's apply the distributive property to both terms inside the parentheses:

(-d)(-d) + (-d)(-4) + 4(-d) + 4(-4)

Simplifying each term, we get:

d^2 + 4d - 4d - 16

Now, let's combine like terms:

d^2 + 0d - 16

Finally, we can simplify further:

d^2 - 16

So, the product of (-d + 4)(-d - 4) is d^2 - 16.
