Answer: A
Step-by-step explanation:
If we are given the values of x and y, we just have to plug them into the expression. So -2xy means -2(-1)(6) which is 12. 12 corresponds to A so A is the correct answer.
The correct answer would be,
<em><u>c.

Given: " (x + 3)(x – 8) " ; expand :
______________________________________
Note: (a + b) (c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd .
_____________________________________
a = x ;
b = 3 ;
c = x
d = 8
_______________________________________
" (x + 3)(x – 8) " ;
= (x * x) + ( -8 * x) + ( 3 * x ) + (3 * -8) ;
= x² + (-8x) + 3x + (-24) ;
= x² – 8x + 3x – 24 ;
→ Combine the "like terms" :
– 8x + 3x = – 5x ;
And simplify the expression;
to get:
→ " x² – 5x – 24 " ; which is: Answer choice: [D]: " x² – 5x – 24 " .
