y(x+5)\text{ = xy + 5y}

Here, we want to multiply the two given polynomials

To do this, we will need to expand the bracket by multiplying the outside term by each of the inner term before adding

This is basically the distributive approach

Thus, we have that;


\begin{gathered} y(x+5)\text{ = (y}* x)+(y*5) \\ =\text{ xy + 5y} \end{gathered}
