write an expression for the area in simplest form. it is a rectangle one side is 4x-2 and the other is 8x-7 my answer is: 32x^2-16x-37 is it right?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

(4x-2)(8x-7) is the area then.... simplest form tho, I dunno.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

32x^2 +(-16-18)x+14 32x^2 -34x + 14

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Use the FOIL method to multiply(First, Outer, Inner, Last) \[32x {2}-28x-32x+14\]

OpenStudy (amistre64):

28..... I knew something was off :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no I was off 32x2-44x+14

OpenStudy (amistre64):

32x^2 +(-16-28)x+14 32x^2 -44x +14
