To simplify the expression \(- (5x - 2)(4x + 8) + 3x^2 - 9x\), let's break it down step by step.
1. **First, expand the product**:
\[
- (5x - 2)(4x + 8)
\]
Using the distributive property (FOIL method):
\[
= - (20x^2 + 40x - 8)
\]
Simplifying gives:
\[
= -20x^2 - 40x + 8
\]
2. **Next, combine this with the other terms in the expression**:
\[
-20x^2 - 40x + 8 + 3x^2 - 9x
\]
3. **Combine like terms**:
- For \(x^2\) terms: \(-20x^2 + 3x^2 = -17x^2\)
- For \(x\) terms: \(-40x - 9x = -49x\)
- The constant term remains \(8\).
Putting it all together:
\[
-17x^2 - 49x + 8
\]
