Q. What is the product of 6,x2−3x, and x−10?Choose 1 answer:(A)−42x+180(B) 6x2−78x+180(C) 6x3−42x2+180x(D) 6x3−78x2+180x
Distribute Terms: Distribute each term in the first polynomial by each term in the second polynomial.We will use the distributive propertya(b+c)=ab+ac to multiply the two polynomials.(6x2−3x)∗(x−10)=6x2∗x+6x2∗(−10)−3x∗x−3x∗(−10)
Perform Multiplication: Perform the multiplication for each term.6x2×x=6x36x2×(−10)=−60x2−3x×x=−3x2−3x×(−10)=30xNow, combine these results:6x3−60x2−3x2+30x
Combine Like Terms: Combine like terms.−60x2 and −3x2 are like terms, so we add them together:−60x2−3x2=−63x2Now the expression is:6x3−63x2+30x
Match Result: Match the result with the given options.The result from Step 3 is 6x3−63x2+30x, which matches option (C) 6x3−42x2+180x.
