Answer 3

To simplify the expression -(2x + 17)^2, you need to perform the following steps:

Step 1: Expand the square of the binomial (2x + 17)^2 Step 2: Multiply the result by -1

Let's begin with Step 1:

(2x + 17)^2 = (2x + 17) * (2x + 17) = 2x * (2x) + 2x * 17 + 17 * (2x) + 17 * 17 = 4x^2 + 34x + 289

Now, let's move on to Step 2:

-(2x + 17)^2 = - (4x^2 + 34x + 289)

The final simplified expression is:

• (4x^2 + 34x + 289)
