Q. y2+4xy+3yWhich of the following is equivalent to the given expression?Choose 1 answer:(A) y(y+4x+3)(B) 4y(x+1)(C) 4y(x+y)(D) 4y2(x+1)
Given Expression: We are given the expression y2+4xy+3y and we need to find an equivalent expression among the choices provided.
Factor Common Term: Let's try to factor the given expression. We can start by factoring out the common factor y from each term.y(y+4x+3)
Compare with Choices: Now, we compare the factored expression y(y+4x+3) with the given choices.(A) y(y+4x+3) matches our factored expression.(B) 4y(x+1) does not match because it suggests a factor of 4y and a sum of x+1, which is not present in the original expression.(C) 4y(x+y) does not match because it suggests a factor of 4y and a sum of x+y, which is not present in the original expression.(D) 4y2(x+1) does not match because it suggests a factor of 4y2 and a sum of x+1, which is not present in the original expression.
Correct Equivalent Expression: The correct equivalent expression is therefore (A)y(y+4x+3).
