Use the Distributive Property to multiply: −3x(4x−5) .(1 point) Responses −12x+15 negative 12 x plus 15 12x2−15x 12 x squared minus 15 x 7x2+8x 7 x squared plus 8 x −12x2+15x

Answer 1

To use the Distributive Property to multiply \(-3x(4x - 5)\), you will distribute \(-3x\) to both terms inside the parentheses:

\[ -3x(4x) + (-3x)(-5) \]

Calculating each term:

1. \(-3x \cdot 4x = -12x^2\)
2. \(-3x \cdot -5 = 15x\)

Now, combine the two results:

\[ -12x^2 + 15x \]

So the final result is:

\(-12x^2 + 15x\)

Therefore, the correct response is: −12x²+15x.
