Answer:
[tex]\huge\boxed{(d+7)(d-7)=d^2-49}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\bold{METHOD\ 1:}\\\\(d+7)(d-7)\qquad|\text{use}\ (a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2\\\\=d^2-7^2=d^2-49\\\\\bold{METHOD\ 2:}\\\\(d+7)(d-7)\qquad|\text{use FOIL}\ (a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd\\\\=(d)(d)+(d)(-7)+(7)(d)+(7)(-7)\\\\=d^2-7d+7d-49\qquad|\text{combine like terms}\\\\=d^2+(-7d+7d)-49\\\\=d^2-49[/tex]
