What is the simplified form of the expression?
3y–5 • 2y2
A. 6y^–3
B. 6y^–10
C. 5y^–10
D. 5y^–3
The given expression 3y–5 • 2y^2 can be simplified as follows:
3y - 5(2y^2) = 3y - 10y^2 [distributing the multiplication]
In order to simplify it further, we need to factor out the common factor of y:
3y - 10y^2 = y(3 - 10y)
Therefore, the simplified form of the expression is y(3 - 10y).
Answer: None of the given options is correct.
To simplify the expression 3y-5 • 2y^2, you need to multiply the coefficients and add the exponents of the variables.
First, multiply the coefficients:
3 • 2 = 6
Next, add the exponents of the variable y:
y^1 • y^2 = y^(1+2) = y^3
Finally, combine the coefficient and the variable:
6y^3
Therefore, the simplified form of the expression is 6y^3.
So, the answer is not in the given options.
