SHOW YOUR WORK PLEASE!!!

Answer 1

2x^2 - 8

Explanation:

You have to take one of the equations and distribute it to the other equation. I'll distribute the 1st equation.

(2x+4)(x-2)

2x times x = 2x^2

2x times -2 = -4x

4 times x = 4x

4 times -2 = -8

So you get 2x^2 - 4x + 4x - 8.

- 4x + 4x cancel out each other

So your final answer is 2x^2 - 8

Answer 2

2x^2-8

Explanation:

(2x+4)(x-2)

2x(x-2)+4(x-2

2x^2-4x+4(x-2)

2x^2-4x+4x-8

2x^2-8

2x^2-8
