Question

Choose the correct simplification of the expression (2x - 6)(3x2 - 3x - 6).

Answer 1

Are there any choices?

Answer 2

I would suggest to multiply each term with it's corresponding term.

Answer 3

So start by multiplying \[2x^2\] with everything on the right parenthesis and then multiply \[6\] with everything on the right parenthesis

Answer 4

Then add like terms together.

Answer 5

a: 6x3 - 24x2 + 6x + 12
b: 6x3 - 24x2 + 6x - 36
c: 6x3 - 24x2 + 6x + 36
d: 6x3 + 24x2 - 6x + 36

Answer 6

\[2x(3x^2-3x-6) + -6(3x^2-3x-6)\]
Can you do that?

Answer 7

(2x - 6)(3x2 - 3x - 6)
6x^3 - 6x^2 - 12x - 18x^2 + 18x + 36
6x^3 - 24x^2 + 6x + 36
You do a concept similar to FOILing. Just go in the same order.
