-3y(2y^2-6y+7)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and you are supposed to distribute?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

not sure, all the description says is how to multiply monomials by polynomials

OpenStudy (anonymous):

multiply each term inside parenthesis with -3y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first one times -3y is -6y^3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-6y^3+18y^2-21y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how did you get that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

multiplying each term inside of parenthesis by -3y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So multiply each term separately?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so that would be...\[(-3y)(2y^2)-(-3y)(6)+(-3y)(7)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oops forgot the "y" after the 6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, except for missing y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i noticed the missing y after i posted it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

good job
