D.8
A and C are out because they would get you ether lower or equal to 20, which is equal to AC and your trying to find X in AB which is so posed to be the what equals AC+BC.
AB=AC+BC
5x=20+BC
5(8)=20+BC
40=20+BC
40=20+20
AC equals 20. AB will have to equal AC+ CB. If you put in A.4 in AB 5X you will get twenty and that not what you want. You want to get a number that will get you the an answer greater to AC. So 5(8)=40.
The two answers are 23 and 47. You would subtract 24 from 70 then divide by 2 which would equal 23 then add the 24 back to it which is 47. 23 plus 47 equals 70.
To get -4 from 1, we must either subtract 5 from 1 or mult. 1 by -4. Unfortunately subtracting 5 from -4 does not result in 9, and mult -4 by -4 does not result in -16. So neither "works" in predicting the next term.
Can you think of any other experiments to do that would help you discover the pattern 1, -4, 9, -16?

Step-by-step explanation:
Literally what was that
I am not familiar with "brighten" but this is how you can expand and use the distributive property:
7(256)
= 7(200 + 50 + 6)
= 7(200) + 7(50) + 7(6)
= 1400 + 350 + 30
= 1780
