To use the Distributive Property to rewrite the expression \((x - 2)(8x + 6)\), we need to apply the distributive property (also known as the FOIL method for binomials).

1. Distribute \(x\) to both terms in the second binomial:
\[
x \cdot 8x + x \cdot 6 = 8x^2 + 6x
\]

2. Distribute \(-2\) to both terms in the second binomial:
\[
-2 \cdot 8x + (-2) \cdot 6 = -16x - 12
\]

3. Now combine all the terms together:
\[
8x^2 + 6x - 16x - 12
\]

4. Combine like terms:
\[
8x^2 + (6x - 16x) - 12 = 8x^2 - 10x - 12
\]

Thus, the rewritten expression using the Distributive Property is:
\[
8x^2 - 10x - 12
\]

From your description, it seems you have specific response areas for \(x^2\), \(x\), and constants:

- \(8\) for \(x^2\)
- \(-10\) for \(x\)
- \(-12\) for the constant.

Fill in the respective response areas with these numbers.
