Question

How do you multiply `(4m - 2) ( - 8m - 4)`?

Answer 1

`-32m^2+8`

Explanation:

`(4m-2)(-8m-4)`

First distribute `4m` to `-8m` and then to `-4` after that you need to distribute `-8m` and `-4` with `-2`. Once you multiply everything then lastly combine every thing and you will find the answer of `-32m^2+8`.

`(4m-2)(-8m-4)`

`-32m^2-16m+16m+8`

`=-32m^2+8`
