Question

Haalp!
Simplify the expression.
3t(t - 5) + 6t 2
What is the first thing that I do?

Answer 1

multiply 3t with (t-5)
6t 2? means?

Answer 2

as in 3x5? are you saying do that?

Answer 3

3t*t-3t*5
got it ..

Answer 4

t means 1 correct? Or does t even mean anything

Answer 5

\[3t \times t-3t \times5\]
t is not 1 it can be any number but when u are not given any number if it is not defined u will not put any other number in it
for example if u r given to put t=2
u can solve and put the value in it
but like the above question u will only simplify will not put any number in "t" place
got it? :)

Answer 6

Well they are algebraic constants used widely for solving equations.

Answer 7

Ahh, I understand that part. So do I just do 3 x 5 and then minus it by three?

Answer 8

it will be as
multiply 3t with both values
\[3t ^{2}-15t\]

Answer 9

3 x 3 is 9 then I'll minus that by 15...
and thats 6

Answer 10

u r given the value of "t"?

Answer 11

the value of t is 1?

Answer 12

u r given in question
plz share full question soo it can help
if value of t is not given u cannot assume it

Answer 13

Simplify the expression.
\[3t(t - 5) + 6t 2\]

And here are the options I am given...

A. \[-12t + 6t2\]
B. \[9t2 - 15t\]
C. \[9t2 - 5\]
D. \[24t\]

Answer 14

\[3t ^{2}-15t+6t ^{2}\]
\[9t ^{2}-15t\]

Answer 15

got it?

Answer 16

3 x 3 is 9
9 - 15 is 6
6 x 6 is 36

I am confusing myself out of existence. Maybe I'm being to literal with how this should be solved.
I see that you rearranged the order of the equation, how did doing that make the answer come out?

Could you just completely step by step on how you got to that answer and then maybe I might understand it then.

Answer 17

ok look t=t nor 3 nor 6
so when we multipy 3t with (t-5)
3t*t - 3t*5
soo dont touch t
t*t will be t square

Answer 18

you got this step?

Answer 19

Leave t as is, your saying. I got that :)

Answer 21

yup t will only get square when it is multiplied twice
then \[3t ^{2}-15-6t ^{2}\]

Answer 22

15t sorry

Answer 23

+6t square

Answer 24

15 + 6 x 6?

Answer 25

I'm sorry for being such a pain, I'm slow at this

Answer 26

same degree will be add up
\[3t ^{2}+6t ^{2}-15t=9t ^{2}-15t\]

Answer 27

ohhh no problem :)

Answer 28

got it?

you can get help from here also..

Answer 30

\[3t2+6t2−15t\] when all equated it comes out to 30.

Answer 31

how?

Answer 32

is that right?

Answer 33

how you do that ?

Answer 34

I did 3 x 3 + 6 x 6 - 15

Answer 35

why u r putting values in "t" place?

Answer 36

No I didn't put values in the "t" place, I just did the "2 squared part"
Ain't that what you supposed to do. Cause if not, why is it there in the first place?

Answer 37

it is not (3t)^2 it is only 3t*t
which means t is two times only t will be sqaured

Answer 38

got the point?

Answer 39

So at what point do I square the 't' in the equation?

Answer 40

3t*t=3t^2
got ?

Answer 41

But whaaat is "t" though? Why would I square it if its nothing.

Answer 42

I feel so bad because I'm taking five years just to understand this

Answer 43

Well they are algebraic constants used widely for solving equations.

Answer 44

like x if u had studied algebra

Answer 45

Yeah I understand all that, it really just mixes me up a lot though.

Answer 46

ok u got the answer of the above question?

Answer 47

yes I did

Answer 48

ok then bye :)

Answer 49

Thanks for being patient

Answer 50

ohhh no problem i am here for helping you :)
