Question

Last question, need help on it badly! In comments! @GoldPhenoix

Answer 1

\[xy(x^2 + y^2)\] I need to simplify.

Answer 2

So you remember how to do the distributive property?

Answer 3

Yes, i keep getting either \[2x^2y+2xy^2\] and \[x^3y+xy^3\] but their both wrong.

Answer 4

Let's do it step-by-step.
What is xy * x^2?

Answer 5

wouldn't it be: \[x^3y\]

Answer 6

Wait. x^3y+ xy^3 is correct.

Answer 7

hey try algebra formula
a^2+b^2=(a+b)^2-2ab

Answer 8

xy (x^2+y^2)
Multiply them with xy
x^3y+xy^3
Then take the common
x(x^2y +y^3) and y (x^3 +xy^2)
