Question

Multiply.
3y^2(-5y^4)
Simplify your answer as much as possible.

Answer 1

`\boxed{\sf{-15y^6}}`

Explanation:

To solve this, you have to use a distributive property to multiply the numbers from left to right.

Distributive property:

A(B+C)=AB+AC

A(B-C)=AB-AC

`\sf{3y^2\left(-5y^4\right)=-3y^2* 5y^4}`

Multiply.

-3*5=-15

-15y²y⁴

`\sf{y^2y^4=y^2^+^4=y^6}`

=-15y⁶

Therefore, the final answer is -15y⁶.

I hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions.
