OpenStudy (anonymous):

Multiply 4 with each term inside the bracket. 4*x^3 - 4*2x + 4*4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you get it now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no sir i kinda dont

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The brackets are used instead of a multiplication sign. You should multiply 4 with each term inside the bracket(x^3, -2x, 4). (You don't need to call me sir, I'm just in ninth grade.)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the answer is 4x3 - 2x + 4 right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No!! You forgot to multiply 4 wiith -2x and 4 as well!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4x3 - 8x + 16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It should be like this: 4(x^3 - 2x + 4) = 4x^3 - 8x + 16
