Multiply (2x^2 + 3x – 6)(x – 1) Multiply (2x^2 + 3x – 6)(x – 1) @Mathematics

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2x^3 + x^2 - 9x + 6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2x^3+3x^2-6x-2x^2-3x+6 = 2x^3+x^2-9x+6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh my god thank you!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

dammit...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

they beat me to it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now can either of you show me step by step how to do that? i hate having to go on here to pretty much cheat. I'd love to be able to understand it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

here.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'll give you a medal anyways :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

using the law of distribution, you must spread out the (x) and the (-1) to each one of the terms in the first bracket.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so,

myininaya (myininaya):

\[(2x^2+3x-6)x+(2x^2+3x-6)(-1)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2x^2 times x + 3x times x - 6 times x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

exactly what myininaya said.

myininaya (myininaya):

\[2x^3+3x^2-6x+(-2x^2-3x+6)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you guys so much!

myininaya (myininaya):

\[2x^3+3x^2-2x^2-6x-3x+6\]

myininaya (myininaya):

\[2x^3+(3-2)x^2+(-6-3)x+6\]

myininaya (myininaya):

\[2x^3+1x^2+(-9)x+6\] \[2x^3+x^2-9x+6\]
