1. Problem Description

We are asked to simplify the expression (x+4)2+(3x+2)(x8)(x+4)^2 + (3x+2)(x-8).

2. Solution Steps

First, we expand (x+4)2(x+4)^2:
(x+4)2=(x+4)(x+4)=x2+4x+4x+16=x2+8x+16(x+4)^2 = (x+4)(x+4) = x^2 + 4x + 4x + 16 = x^2 + 8x + 16
Next, we expand (3x+2)(x8)(3x+2)(x-8):
(3x+2)(x8)=3x224x+2x16=3x222x16(3x+2)(x-8) = 3x^2 - 24x + 2x - 16 = 3x^2 - 22x - 16
Now, we add the two expressions:
(x2+8x+16)+(3x222x16)=x2+3x2+8x22x+1616=4x214x(x^2 + 8x + 16) + (3x^2 - 22x - 16) = x^2 + 3x^2 + 8x - 22x + 16 - 16 = 4x^2 - 14x

3. Final Answer

4x214x4x^2 - 14x
