Q:

(x - 8)(3x - 4)

Accepted Solution

A:

Solution variant #3.

Multiply each term in the first parentheses by each term in the second parentheses (FOIL)
$x \times 3x-4x-8 \times 3x-8 \times \left( -4 \right)$
Calculate the product
$3{x}^{2}-4x-8 \times 3x-8 \times \left( -4 \right)$
Calculate the product
$3{x}^{2}-4x-24x-8 \times \left( -4 \right)$
Multiply the numbers
$3{x}^{2}-4x-24x+32$
Collect like terms
$3{x}^{2}-28x+32$
