Question

Chin made an error in his chart showing the multiplication of the binomial by the trinomial. Which change can be made to correct the chart? The expression 3x3 should be 3x2. The expression 6x should be 6x2. The expression 4x should be 4x2. The expression 2x2 should be 2x3.

Answer 1

The expression 6x should be 6x^2.

Explanation:

Given is the chart of multiplication of the binomial by the trinomial.

Let's check each element in the chart:-

3x times x^2 = 3x^3

3x times 2x = 6x^2

3x times 4 = 12x

2 times x^2 = 2x^2

2 times 2x = 4x

2 times 4 = 8

From the given chart, we can identify that 6x should be 6x^2.

Hence. option B is correct, i.e. The expression 6x should be 6x^2.
