Although they are the same variable, you cannot add two variables raised to different powers. 3x^1 + 5x^2 cannot work, but 3x^2 + 5x^2 can. Also, if you are multiplying them, they would combine to be 15x^3, as 3 and 5 (The coefficients) multiply together and x^2 times x^1 = x^3.
I hope that helps.
12 chips if you are trying to find 60% of 20
2pm minus 30 minutes minus another 30 minutes, is 1pm.
Answer:
12 x^4 + 18 x^3 - 9 x^2 thus D is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Expand the following:
3 x^2 (4 x^2 + 6 x - 3)
3 x^2 (4 x^2 + 6 x - 3) = 3 x^2 (4 x^2) + 3 x^2 (6 x) + 3 x^2 (-3):
3 4 x^2 x^2 + 3 6 x^2 x - 3 3 x^2
3 (-3) = -9:
3 4 x^2 x^2 + 3 6 x^2 x + -9 x^2
3 x^2×6 x = 3 x^(2 + 1)×6:
3 4 x^2 x^2 + 3×6 x^(2 + 1) - 9 x^2
2 + 1 = 3:
3 4 x^2 x^2 + 3 6 x^3 - 9 x^2
3×6 = 18:
3 4 x^2 x^2 + 18 x^3 - 9 x^2
3 x^2×4 x^2 = 3 x^4×4:
3×4 x^4 + 18 x^3 - 9 x^2
3×4 = 12:
Answer: 12 x^4 + 18 x^3 - 9 x^2
