Question

Which of the interpretations for the given expression is correct?

5(3x-4)^2

A.
the difference of 5, 3x, and 4 squared
B.
the product of 5 and the difference of 3x and 4 squared
C.
the quotient of 5 and the square of 3x - 4
D.
the product of 5 and the square of 3x - 4

Answer 1

The correct answer is D, because the first step in the expression is finding the difference of 3x and 4. Then, you square it, and finally, multiply it by 5 (finding the product. I hope this helped!

Answer 2

The product of 5 and the difference of 3x and 4 squared

Explanation:

Given :
`5(3x-4)^2`

To Find: Which of the interpretations for the given expression is correct?

Solution:

`5(3x-4)^2`

First (3x-4) is the difference of 3x and 4

Now
`(3x-4)^2` is the square of the difference of 3x and 4

Now
`5(3x-4)^2` is product of 5 and the square of the difference of 3x and 4

So, Option B is true .

Hence the interpretations for the given expression is the product of 5 and the difference of 3x and 4 squared
