Question

Simplify this expression. 12x2(3x4 − 2x)

A) 36x6 − 2x
B) 36x6 − 24x3
C) 36x8 − 2x
D)36x8 − 24x3

Answer 1

`36*x^6-24*x^3`

Explanation:

We can simplify the expressio using the product rule. The exponents will add up when multiplied with each other:

`=12*x^2*(3*x^4-2*x)`

`=12*3*x^(2+4)-12*2*x^(2+1)`

`=36*x^(6)-24*x^(3)`

The answer is B

`36*x^6-24*x^3`
