Hm._. a post
I don't know dis :3
@mathmale here i did like this :3 the second post
I see you have one multiplicand, -a^2*b^2*c^2, that is outside the parentheses. Inside the parentheses you have 3 terms. You are to multiply each of those 3 terms, one by one by -a^2*b^2*c^2. Hint: -a^2 * a = - a^3
Questions about this procedure? In what area do you need guidance?
wait so i multiply all of them?? :3
@Astrophysics umm i have no idea ;~;
Hey
Hi :3
So note the exponent rule \[\huge x^n x^m = x^{n+m}\] This is saying when you have a same variable, but different exponents (integers) when you multiply you add the exponents. So I'll do the first one for you, we are just distributing here: \[\large (-a^2b^2c^2)(a+b-c) \implies -a^{2+1}b^2c^2+(-a^2b^{?+?}c^2)-...\]
See if that makes sense
Oh okay I'm looking thrue it
do i have to continue with a?
|dw:1455858001030:dw| so the last one is a - * - which is a positive you have the last term left to do, also I left the second term as b^2b so you can practice the exponent rule, see if you can finish it off
