Example Question #41 : Polynomials
Which of the following expressions is equivalent to: 6x (m2 +yx2 –3)?
6xm2 + 7x3 -18
xm2 + 7x3 -18
6xm2 + 6yx3 -18x
6xm2 + 6yx3 -18
6xm2 + 6yx2 -18x
6xm2 + 6yx3 -18x
6x (m2 +yx2 –3)= 6x∙m2 + 6xyx2 – 6x∙3= 6xm2 + 6yx3 -18x (Use Distributive Property)
Example Question #1 : How To Multiply Binomials With The Distributive Property
Which of the following expressions is equivalent to: ?
Use the distributive property to multiply by all of the terms in :
Example Question #42 : Polynomials
If and are constants and is equivalent to , what is the value of ?
Cannot be determined from the given information.
The question gives us a quadratic expression and its factored form. From this, we know
At this point, solve for t.
Now, we can plug in to get
.
Now, use FOIL to get s.
Example Question #1 : Binomials And Foil
Which expression is equal to ?
In this problem, we are to multiply the two binomials using the FOIL method. This method stands for the order in which you multiply the variables. F stands for the first term of each binomial. O stands for the outside terms, meaning the first term of the first binomial and the last term of the second. I stands for the inside terms, meaning the second term of the first binomial and the first term of the second. L stands for the last term of each binomial. Once you do this, you simply add each part together to recieve your polynomial answer. Here is how our problem is solved:
