Question

Express the product of (1/2x +3/4) and (2/5x - 1/6) as a trinomial in simplest form.

Answer 1

2/10x^2 + 13/60x - 1/12

Explanation:

(1/2x +3/4)(2/5x - 1/6)

2/10x^2 - 1/12x + 3/10x - 1/12

2/10x^2 - 1/12x + 3/10x - 1/12

2/10x^2 - 10/120x + 36/120x - 1/12

2/10x^2 + 26/120x - 1/12

2/10x^2 + 13/60x - 1/12
