Question 643286: This is the question:
x to the 2nd power (x+1) -x (x to the 2nd power-1) =?
I have already tried using the distributive property but my answer does not match the one in the back of the textbook. I got x to the third power+1x to the 2nd power-x to the 3rd power + 1x

This is the question:
x to the 2nd power (x+1) -x (x to the 2nd power-1) =?
Assume the problem is:
x%5E2%28x%2B1%29+-+x%28x%5E2-1%29 = x%5E3+%2B+x%5E2+-+x%5E3+%2B+x; I think you are right!
