Question 1(Multiple Choice Worth 4 points)

(6.03)
Which of the following best describes the expression 4(y + 6)?

The product of a constant factor of four and a factor with the sum of two terms
The sum of a constant factor of six and a factor with the product of two terms
The product of two constant factors four and six plus a variable
The sum of two constant factors four and six plus a variable

Answer 1

The answer is The product of a constant factor of four and a factor with the sum of two terms

Answer 2

The answer would be A) The product of a constant factor of four and a factor with the sum of two terms.

The expression 4(y + 6) is the product of two factors: 4 and (y + 6).

4 is a constant factor; the value will remain as 4 regardless of the y value.

The second factor, (y + 6), represents a sum of two terms: y and 6.

Therefore, A is the correct answer.
