I know this is simple but my answer doesn't match the answer in the book. Can you please give a step by step direction in how to get the correct answer. Thank you!

(x + 8)((32 − x^2) − x^2) dx

TO

First simplify the 2nd set of parentheses

(x+8) ((32 - x²) - x²)
=(x+8) (32 - x² - x²)
=(x+8) (32 - 2x²)

Now FOIL

F = 32x
O = -2x³
I = 256
L = -16x²

Put them together we get
256 + 32x -16x² - 2x³

(x + 8)((32 − x^2) − x^2) dx
(x + 8) (32 –2x^2)dx
(32 x –2x^3 + 256 –16x^2) dx
(256 + 32x – 16 x^2 – 2x^3) dx

(x+8)((32-x^2)-x^2)dx
=(x+8)(32 -x^2 -x^2)dx
=(x+8)(32 -2x^2)dx
=(x(32-2x^2)+8(32 -2x^2))
=(32x-2^3+256-16x^2)dx
=(256 + 32x − 16x^2 − 2x^3) dx

(x+8)((32 - x^2) - x^2)
= (x + 8) (32 - 2x^2)
= 32x + 8(32) - (x) (2x^2) - 8(2x^2)
= 32x + 256 - 2x^3 - 16x^3

[ (x + 8) (32 - 2 x ²) ] dx
[ 32 x - 2 x³ + 256 - 16 x ² ] dx
[ 256 + 32 x - 16 x ² - 2 x ³ ] dx
