The correct answer is:  [D]:  " 4x² − 12x − 4 " .
___________________________________________________
Explanation: 
___________________________________________________
Given:
___________________________________________________
    "  (16x²  − 16)  +  ( -12x² − 12x + 12) " ;    Simplify.
___________________________________________________
Note the "distributive property of multiplication:
___________________________________________________
  a(b + c)  =  ab +  ac ; 

  a(b − c)  =  ab − ac .
___________________________________________________
So we can rewrite the expression as:

  "  (16x²  − 16)  +  1( -12x² − 12x + 12) "  ; 

{The "1" is implied; since "1", multiplied by any value, results in the exact same value.}.

Let us examine the following part of the expression:
_________________________________________________
    "  + 1 ( -12x² − 12x + 12 ) " ;

Using the distributive property of multiplication:
 
"  + 1 ( -12x² − 12x + 12 )  =  (1 * -12x²) − (1 * 12x) + (1 * 12) ; 

                                        =   "  − 12x² − 12x + 12 " ; 
_________________________________________________
Now, bring down the other part of the expression; & rewrite:
_________________________________________________
→   " (16x²  − 16)  − 12x² − 12x + 12 " ; 

   →  " 16x²  − 16 − 12x² − 12x + 12 "  ;

Now, combine the "like terms" :

     + 16x²  −  12x²  = 4x²  ; 

     − 16 + 12 =  -4 ; 

and we have " − 12x" ;

So we can rewrite the expression as:
_______________________________________________________

 →   " 4x² − 12x − 4 " ; 

        →  which is:  "Answer choice:  [D]:  " 4x² − 12x − 4 <span>" .

What is the measure of
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

70

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles of a triangle should always add up to 180 degrees.

In this problem, they have given us 2 angle measures of the triangle - 40 degrees and 70 degrees. To figure out the third angle, we simply need to figure out how many more degrees we need for reaching the 180 degrees.

I'm just going to do some simple math:

40 + 70 = 110 (sum of the 2 angles)

180 - 110 = 70 (subtracting 180 by the sum of the 2 angles)
