Split it up
3x^2+12x-5x-20
group
(3x^2+12x)+(-5x-20)
factor
(3x)(x+4)+(-5)(x+4)
undistribute (x+4) like ab+ac=a(b+c)
(3x-5)(x+4)
D 288 because 216/3 equals 72 times that by 4 and you get 288.
If you multiply 2x2 you get 4 and multiply another 2 which is 8. Two answers are 8 and 2x2x2.
Answer:
C and D are the same answers but one of those.
Step-by-step explanation:
