Am I right?
Multiply.
(4x + 7)2
16x2 + 49 (My Answer)
16x2 + 28x + 49
16x2 + 56x + 49
8x2 + 14

That isn't what I get for an answer.
Recall,
\((ax+b)c=(a\times c)x+bc\)
OpenStudy (shamil98):
No, you forgot that (4x+7)(4x+7)
4x x 7 and 7 x 4x.
OpenStudy (shamil98):
which is 28x + 28x..
OpenStudy (austinl):
Or is it,
\((4x+7)^2\)
?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes that's what it is

The answer is c...
you would only get your answer if the values were (4x-7)^2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
That is the value
OpenStudy (anonymous):
are you multiplying it by two or are you given the power to two????
OpenStudy (austinl):
Ok,
\((ax+b)^2=(ax+b)(ax+b)\Rightarrow~ax^2+abx+abx+b^2\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
power of 2

And so are the answer chocies
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@austinL is right
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so is it 16x2 + 28x + 49
OpenStudy (shamil98):
No.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So then 16x2 + 56x + 49

So from your question of,
\((4x+7)^2=(4x+7)(4x+7)\Rightarrow~(4x\times4x)+(7\cdot4)x+(7\cdot4)x+(7\cdot7)\)
OpenStudy (austinl):
When simplified,
\(16x^2+56x+49\)
That is correctomundo!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Okay! Thanks for explaining! ^-^
OpenStudy (austinl):
No problem!
