Answer:
Option 1,3 and 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The algebraic expression [tex]3x(x-12x) + 3x^2-2(x-2)^2[/tex]
To find : Which statements are true about the process and simplified product?
Solution :
First we solve the algebraic expression,
[tex]3x(x-12x)+3x^2-2(x-2)^2[/tex]
Solve the square term,
[tex]=3x(x-12x)+3x^2-2(x^2+4-4x)[/tex]
Open the parentheses by multiplication,
[tex]=3x^2-36x^2+3x^2-2x^2-8+8x[/tex]
Add or subtract the like terms,
[tex]=-32x^2+8x-8[/tex]
So, looking at the steps
Correct statements are:
- The term [tex]- 2(x - 2)^2[/tex] is simplified by first squaring the expression x-2.
- After multiplying the like terms are combined by adding and subtracting.
- The parenthesis are eliminated through multiplication.
Therefore, Option 1,3 and 4 are correct.
