Question

(x – 3)(4x + 2) using the distributive property. Select the answer choice showing the correct distribution

Answer 1

(X-3) (4x)+(x-3)(2)

Step-by-step explanation: Good luck! :)

Answer 2

The distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac

(x - 3)(4x + 2) = (x)(4x + 2) + (-3)(4x + 2)

= (x)(4x) + (x)(2) + (-3)(4x) + (-3)(2) = 4x² + 2x - 12x - 6

= 4x² - 10x - 6
