Find the polynomial.
2(3y − 1)(y − 3) is the factored form of .

Answer 1

6y² - 20y + 6

Explanation:

Use FOIL method

(3y - 1)(y-3) = 3y*y + 3y*(-3) + (-1)*y + (-1)*(-3)

= 3y²- 9y - y + 3 {add the like terms}

= 3y² - 10y + 3

2(3y - 1)(y - 3) = 2 ( 3y² - 10y + 3)

= 2*3y² - 2*10y + 2*3

= 6y² - 20y + 6
