Problem 1 Remove the parentheses: (2y + 4)(3y + 2) | |
| Procedure | |
| Multiply first terms | (2y + 4)(3y + 2) 6y2 |
| Multiply first and second | (2y + 4)(3y + 2) 4y |
| Multiply second and first | (2y + 4)(3y + 2) 12y |
| Multiply second and second | (2y + 4)(3y + 2) 8 |
| Sum the results and combine like terms | 6y2 + 4y + 12y + 8 = 6y2 + 16y + 8 |
| Solution | |
(2y + 4)(3y + 2) = 6y2 + 16y + 8 | |
