Question

Multiply the polynomial (12x^4 - 4x^3 + 5) by (-4x^2) *

Answer 1

Answer:

$- 48 {x}^{6} + 16 {x}^{5} - 20 {x}^{2}$

Option D is the correct option.

Solution,

$- 4 {x}^{2} (12 {x}^{4} - 4 {x}^{3} + 5) \\ = - 4 {x}^{2} \times 12 {x}^{4} + 4 {x}^{2} \times 4 {x}^{3} - 4 {x}^{2} \times 5 \\ = - 48 {x}^{6} + 16 {x}^{5} - 20 {x}^{2}$

hope this helps...

Good luck on your assignment...
