Explanation:


- 8x( {x}^(2) - 8x + 3) \\ = ( - 8x * {x}^(2)) - ( - 8x * 8x) + ( - 8x * 3) \\ = - 8 {x}^(3) + 64 {x}^(2) - 24x

distribute -8x to each term in the perenthesis i.e. multiply each term by -8x

Answer:

-8x^3 + 64x^2 - 24x

Explanation:

To distribute, we must multiple -8x to each term:

-8x(x^2) - 8x(-8x) - 8x(3)

-8x^3 + 64x^2 - 24x
