Question

Simplify the expressions. Show your work. 3x(4x^4-5x)

Answer 1

The first step to simplifying this expression is to multiply each te in the parenthesis by 3x.
3x × 4
`x^(4)` - 3x × 5x
Now calculate the first product in this expression.
12
`x^(5)` - 3x × 5x
Calculate the second product in this expression.
12
`x^(5)` - 15
`x^(2)`
Since you cannot simplify this expression any further,, the correct answer to your question is 12
`x^(5)` - 15
`x^(2)`.
