Answer:
d) 2x^2 + 2x -59
Step-by-step explanation:
(x-8)(x+4) + (x-3)(x+9) *multiply each term (...)(...)*
x^2 - 4x - 32 + x^2 + 6x -27 *combine like terms*
2x^2 +2x - 59
So the rule with multiplying exponents of the same base is to add the exponents together. Applying this rule here would look like this:

In short, your simplified expression is going to be -16x^7y^6.
Accordinly to the details, i think that A could work.
Answer: 16
Step-by-step explanation:
let a = your present age
a = 2(a+4) - 2(a-4)
a = 2a + 8 - 2a + 8
a = 2a - 2a + 8 + 8
a = 16 yrs is your age
