Which of the following best describes the expression 6(y + 3)?
Are your answers along the lines of: polynomial monomial binomial ?
@coolswag ?
think he's gone man... :(
what do you mean @AbdullahM
Do you have answer choices?
ya i do just what a minute till i write them down
a.the product of two constant factors six and three plus a variable b.the sum of the constant factors six and three plus a variable c.the product of a constant factor of six and a factor with the sum of two teams d.the sum of a constant factor of three and a factor with the product of two terms
@AbdullahM
is @AbdullahM still helping you
Do you have any idea what the answer is? Any gut feeling after reading the answer choices?
no
did you find the answer
Lets look at each answer choice individually. A. the product of two constant factors six and three plus a variable What does product mean? Multiplication or divison?
multiplacation
Ok, so then answer choice A when translated into equation becomes: \(\sf 6 \times 3 + y\) Is that correct? Is that the same thing that we were given earlier?
no
Exactly, so now we know that the answer isn't A. Which answer choice should we work on next? :)
b
b. the sum of the constant factors six and three plus a variable Sum means addition or subtraction?
addition
so we can make that to: \(\sf 6+3+y\) is that corect?
no
so next answer choice, which one will it be? (:
c
c.the product of a constant factor of six and a factor with the sum of two teams product, you said, means multiplication. And sum, you said, means addition. So can you make an equation given what the anwer choice says?
so the answer is c
yes, it is \(\ddot\smile\)
thank you can you help me with another one
sure, make another post and tag me \(\ddot\smile\)
