Answer:

D

Explanation:

(4x√5x^2 +2x^2√6)^2

remove the last ^2 by multiplying the parenthesis by each other:

(4x√5x^2 +2x^2√6) * (4x√5x^2 +2x^2√6)

use FOIL & distribute :

4x√5x(4x√5x +2x^2√6) +2x^2√6(4x√5x +2x^2√6)

apply the distributive property once more:

4x^2√5(4x^2√5)+ 4x^2√5(2x^2√6) + (2x^2√6(4x^2√5) +2x^2√6(2x^2√6)

remove parenthesis and combine like terms to get:

104x^4+16x^4√30

answer is D
