Question

Which statements are true about the fully simplified product of (b-2c)(-3b c) ?

Answer 1

Answer:

( 3 )The simplified product has a degree of 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

$(b-2c)(-3b+c)$

Multiply the parenthesis using FOIL method

multiply b inside the second parenthesis

$b(-3b+c)= -3b^2 +bc$

$-2c(-3b+c)= 6bc -2c^2$

$(-3b^2 +bc+6bc -2c^2)$

Combine like terms

$-3b^2 +7bc -2c^2$

Simplified product has 3 terms, and the degree of 2 because we have b^2

and c^2
