Question 80553: Which of he following expressions represents the product of 3 less than twice x and 2 more than quantity 3 times x? Can i have this problem explained to refresh my memory? Answer by tutorcecilia(2152) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! (2x-3)(3x+2)
Product = multiplicatin
Less than = subtraction
More than = addition
Twice = 2 times a number or term
Three times = 3 times a number or term
.
Use the FOIL method to multiply:
(2x-3)(3x+2)
(2x)(3x)+(2x(2)-(3)(3x)-6 [simplify]
6x^2+4x-9x-6 [combine like-terms]
6x^2-5x-6
I hope this helps.
