Question

Which strategy would you choose to expand (x+11)(2x+3) and write an equivalent expression

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression (x+11)(2x+3)

We want to expand it and write equivalent expression

Generally if we want to expand an expression we will take one of the expression in one bracket and multiply with the other bracket and then take the other expression and multiply it with the other

E.g, (a+b) × (c + d)

Then, we take a × (c+d) and also b × (c+d)

We can do it the other way round too and it will give the same results.

So, applying this to the given expression

(x+11)(2x+3)

x(2x+3) + 11(2x+3)

2x² + 3x + 22x + 33

2x² + 25x + 33

Then, the equivalent expression is 2x² + 25x + 33

(x + 11)(2x + 3) = 2x² + 25x + 33
