Question

Find the product. 8y 3(-3y 2)

Answer 1

For this case we must find the product of the following expression:

$8y ^ 3 (-3y ^ 2) =$

We have to by law of signs of multiplication:

$+ * - = -$

Also, by definition of multiplication of powers of the same base, we put the same base and add the exponents, then the expression is rewritten as:

$-24y ^ {3 + 2} =\\-24y ^ 5$

Answer:

$-24y ^ 5$
