Simplify the expression 3x(x – 12x) + 3x2 – 2(x – 2)2. which statements are true about the process and simplified product? check all that apply. simplify the expression 3x(x – 12x) + 3x2 – 2(x – 2)2. which statements are true about the process and simplified product? check all that apply.

We have the expression:
3x(x-12x) + 3x^2 - 2(x-2)^2

First, we will expand the power 2 bracket as follows:
3x(x-12x) + 3x^2 - 2(x^2 - 4x +4)

Then, we will get rid of the brackets as follows:
3x^2 - 36x^2 + 3x^2 - 2x^2 + 8x - 8

Now, we will gather the like terms and add them as follows:
-32 x^2 + 8x - 8

We can take the 8 as a common factor:
8 ( -4x^2 + x -1)
