Question

Use the grouping symbols to interpret the following equation: x8=3(x+4)2 . Which expression in the equation represents a product?(1 point) Responses 3(x+4)2 Start Fraction 3 left parenthesis x plus 4 right parenthesis over 2 End Fraction 2 2 x8 Start Fraction x over 8 End Fraction 3(x+4)

Answer 1

In the equation \( x^8 = 3(x + 4)^2 \), the expression that represents a product is \( 3(x + 4)^2 \). This is because the expression involves multiplying \( 3 \) by \( (x + 4)^2 \), which is the square of \( (x + 4) \).

Therefore, the correct response is:
**3(x + 4)^2**.
