Answer

$16x^{2}-49y^{2}$

Work Step by Step

We use the formula for the difference of squares to apply to this question. The difference of squares formula is: $(a-b) (a+b) = a^{2} - b^{2}$ In the given formula let 4x represents a and 7y represents b. $(4x-7y) (4x+7y) = (4x)^{2} - (7y)^{2}$ = $16x^{2}-49y^{2}$
