Q. Let p=4x7 p=4x-7 . Which equation is equivalent to (4x7)2+16=40x70 (4x-7)^{2}+16=40x-70 in terms of p p ? Choose 11 answer:\newline(A) p210p+86=0 p^{2}-10p+86=0 \newline(B) p210p+16=0 p^{2}-10p+16=0 \newline(C) p2+10p+86=0 p^{2}+10p+86=0 \newline(D) p2+10p+16=0 p^{2}+10p+16=0
  1. Substitute pp in equation: Substitute pp for 4x74x-7 in the given equation.\newlineGiven equation: (4x7)2+16=40x70(4x-7)^2 + 16 = 40x - 70\newlineSubstitute pp for 4x74x-7: p2+16=40x70p^2 + 16 = 40x - 70
  2. Express 40x40x in terms of pp: Express 40x40x in terms of pp.
    We know that p=4x7p = 4x - 7, so 4x=p+74x = p + 7.
    Substitute 4x4x in the equation: p2+16=40(p+7)70p^2 + 16 = 40(p + 7) - 70
  3. Distribute and simplify equation: Distribute and simplify the equation. \newlinep2+16=40p+28070p^2 + 16 = 40p + 280 - 70\newlinep2+16=40p+210p^2 + 16 = 40p + 210
  4. Move terms to set equation to zero: Move all terms to one side to set the equation to zero.\newlinep240p+16=210p^2 - 40p + 16 = 210\newlinep240p+16210=0p^2 - 40p + 16 - 210 = 0\newlinep240p194=0p^2 - 40p - 194 = 0
  5. Check answer choices: Check the given answer choices to see which one matches the simplified equation.\newlineThe simplified equation is p240p194=0p^2 - 40p - 194 = 0, but none of the answer choices match this equation. There seems to be a mistake in the simplification process.
