The distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac
(x - 3)(4x + 2) = (x)(4x + 2) + (-3)(4x + 2)
= (x)(4x) + (x)(2) + (-3)(4x) + (-3)(2) = 4x² + 2x - 12x - 6
<h3>= 4x² - 10x - 6</h3>

the answer is 1/2 which loos like "D"
Step-by-step explanation:
the top ends up being x ^-8 and the denominator is x^-7
which is x^&/x^8 = 1/x = 1/2
