Question

Simplify the equation -2(p + 4)2 - 3 + 5p. What is the simplified expression in standard form? ASAP PLEASE!! ILL GIVE EXTRA POINTS FOR FIRST ANSWER!!

Answer 1

So you distrubute and get

-2p-8+2-3+5p 
add like terms 
3p-9
ANSWER: 3p-9

Answer 2

Answer:  The required simplified expression in standard form is $-2p^2-11p-35.$

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to simplify the following equation and write the simplified expression in standard form :

$E=-2(p+4)^2-3+5p~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)$

We will be using the following formula :

$(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2.$

The simplification of expression (i) is as follows :

$E\\\\=-2(p+4)^2-3+5p\\\\=-2(p^2+8p+16)-3+5p\\\\=-2p^2-16p-32-3+5p\\\\=-2p^2-11p-35.$

Thus, the required simplified expression in standard form is $-2p^2-11p-35.$
