Question

Solve this using distributive property (a-7b)(3a+4b)

Answer 1

3a^2 - 17ab - 28b^2

Explanation:

When we multiply 2 poly/binomials by each other, we multiply each element of the first nomial with each element of the second nomial and then add it all up in the end.

(a-7b)(3a+4b) = a(3a) + a(4b) -7b(3a) -7b(4b)

Now we simplify and combine like terms

3a^2 + 4ab - 21ab - 28b^2

3a^2 - 17ab - 28b^2

Hope this helps :)
