Multiply (3x – 1)(x + 5)

OpenStudy (christos):

Do you know which term to multiply first?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is this how it is started? 3x^2+15x-1x+4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The 3x

OpenStudy (christos):

correct

OpenStudy (christos):

That's the result, there is nothing more into it when it comes to a mere multiplication

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So thats it? It is seriously that simple?

OpenStudy (christos):

The only mistake is at the end, see -5 and not -4

OpenStudy (christos):

and not +4***

OpenStudy (christos):

and instead of -1x you could just write -x, right?

OpenStudy (christos):

(- 1 times x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (christos):

That's pretty much it.
