Math Problem Statement

2x^2(3-4x)^4

Solution

To simplify the expression 2x2(34x)42x^2(3 - 4x)^4, we can expand it step-by-step:

  1. Start by identifying the two main factors: 2x22x^2 and (34x)4(3 - 4x)^4.

  2. We can’t directly expand (34x)4(3 - 4x)^4 without using the binomial theorem, but for now, we leave it in its expanded form. However, you can distribute 2x22x^2 over the expression after expanding (34x)4(3 - 4x)^4, if required.

Thus, the expression remains as: 2x2(34x)42x^2(3 - 4x)^4
