1
Simplify the first expression by distributing coefficients and combining like terms.
a2+2ab+a23b=ab--a^2 + 2ab + a^2 - 3b = -ab
Distributing the negative sign yields a2+2ab--a^2 + 2ab and distributing aa yields a23aba^2 - 3ab. Adding them eliminates the a2a^2 terms, leaving ab-ab.
2
Simplify the second expression by distributing coefficients and combining like terms.
2a2b2ab2a2b+3ab=ab2a^2b - 2ab - 2a^2b + 3ab = ab
Distributing 22 yields 2a2b2ab2a^2b - 2ab and distributing ab-ab yields 2a2b+3ab-2a^2b + 3ab. Adding them eliminates the 2a2b2a^2b terms, leaving abab.
3
Simplify the third expression by distributing coefficients and combining like terms.
a3a2ba3+a2b=0a^3 - a^2b - a^3 + a^2b = 0
Distributing a2a^2 yields a3a2ba^3 - a^2b and distributing a-a yields a3+a2b-a^3 + a^2b. Adding them eliminates all terms, leaving 00.

Use the binomial expansion formula to expand (mn)3=m33m2n+3mn2n3(m - n)^3 = m^3 - 3m^2n + 3mn^2 - n^3. Distribute the m-m term to obtain m3+3mn2-m^3 + 3mn^2. Sum all the expressions and combine like terms: (m3m3)3m2n+(3mn2+3mn2)+(n3+n3)=3m2n+6mn2(m^3 - m^3) - 3m^2n + (3mn^2 + 3mn^2) + (-n^3 + n^3) = -3m^2n + 6mn^2.

Cevap: x3y2x2y-x^3y - 2x^2y

Cevap

x3y2x2y-x^3y - 2x^2y
Distributing 2x2-2x^2 across the parentheses (3xyy)(3xy - y) yields 6x3y+2x2y-6x^3y + 2x^2y. Substituting this back gives 5x3y6x3y+2x2y4x2y5x^3y - 6x^3y + 2x^2y - 4x^2y. Combining the x3yx^3y terms (5x3y6x3y=x3y5x^3y - 6x^3y = -x^3y) and the x2yx^2y terms (2x2y4x2y=2x2y2x^2y - 4x^2y = -2x^2y) yields the simplified expression x3y2x2y-x^3y - 2x^2y.

Cevap: 3a2b+5ab2-3a^2b + 5ab^2

Cevap

The simplified expression is 3a2b+5ab2-3a^2b + 5ab^2.
The correct expression is 3a2b+5ab2-3a^2b + 5ab^2. Expanding the three parts yields 18a312a2b+2ab218a^3 - 12a^2b + 2ab^2, 6a2b+3ab2-6a^2b + 3ab^2, and 18a3+15a2b-18a^3 + 15a^2b. Summing these parts together cancels out the cubic a3a^3 terms (18a318a3=018a^3 - 18a^3 = 0), combines the a2ba^2b terms (12a2b6a2b+15a2b=3a2b-12a^2b - 6a^2b + 15a^2b = -3a^2b), and combines the ab2ab^2 terms (2ab2+3ab2=5ab22ab^2 + 3ab^2 = 5ab^2).

Cevap: 2x2y+10xy2+y3-2x^2y + 10xy^2 + y^3

Cevap

The correct expression is 2x2y+10xy2+y3-2x^2y + 10xy^2 + y^3.
The correct expression 2x2y+10xy2+y3-2x^2y + 10xy^2 + y^3 is obtained by correctly expanding the binomial (x2y)2(x-2y)^2 into x24xy+4y2x^2 - 4xy + 4y^2, distributing the outer terms 3x3x, x2-x^2, and y2-y^2 to all terms inside their respective parentheses, and then combining the coefficients of the matching variable terms: the x3x^3 terms cancel out, the x2yx^2y terms combine to 2x2y-2x^2y, the xy2xy^2 terms combine to 10xy210xy^2, and the y3y^3 term remains.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Expand the binomial expression (x2y)2(x - 2y)^2.
x24xy+4y2x^2 - 4xy + 4y^2
Before distributing 3x3x, the squared binomial must be expanded using the identity (ab)2=a22ab+b2(a - b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2.
2
Multiply the expanded binomial by the coefficient 3x3x.
3x312x2y+12xy23x^3 - 12x^2y + 12xy^2
Distribute 3x3x to each of the three terms in the expanded expression: 3x(x2)=3x33x(x^2) = 3x^3, 3x(4xy)=12x2y3x(-4xy) = -12x^2y, and 3x(4y2)=12xy23x(4y^2) = 12xy^2.
3
Distribute x2-x^2 to (3x10y)(3x - 10y).
3x3+10x2y-3x^3 + 10x^2y
Distribute x2-x^2 to both terms, noting that multiplying two negative signs yields a positive term: x2(3x)=3x3-x^2(3x) = -3x^3 and x2(10y)=+10x2y-x^2(-10y) = +10x^2y.
4
Distribute y2-y^2 to (2xy)(2x - y).
2xy2+y3-2xy^2 + y^3
Distribute y2-y^2 to both terms, adding the exponents of yy where appropriate: y2(2x)=2xy2-y^2(2x) = -2xy^2 and y2(y1)=+y3-y^2(-y^1) = +y^3.
5
Combine all parts and group the like terms together.
2x2y+10xy2+y3-2x^2y + 10xy^2 + y^3
Group and add the coefficients of identical variable terms: (3x33x3)+(12x2y+10x2y)+(12xy22xy2)+y3=0x32x2y+10xy2+y3(3x^3 - 3x^3) + (-12x^2y + 10x^2y) + (12xy^2 - 2xy^2) + y^3 = 0x^3 - 2x^2y + 10xy^2 + y^3.

When the expression 2x(3xy)23y2(x2y)x2(18x15y)2x(3x - y)^2 - 3y^2(x - 2y) - x^2(18x - 15y) is simplified by combining like terms, what is the coefficient of x2yx^2y?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 3

Cevap

The coefficient of x2yx^2y is 33.
The correct coefficient of 33 is obtained by expanding the expression step-by-step. First, the square of the binomial (3xy)2(3x - y)^2 is 9x26xy+y29x^2 - 6xy + y^2. Distributing 2x2x gives 18x312x2y+2xy218x^3 - 12x^2y + 2xy^2. Next, distributing x2-x^2 to (18x15y)(18x - 15y) gives 18x3+15x2y-18x^3 + 15x^2y. Combining the x2yx^2y terms gives 12x2y+15x2y=3x2y-12x^2y + 15x^2y = 3x^2y, meaning the coefficient is 33.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Expand the squared binomial term (3xy)2(3x - y)^2 using the algebraic identity (ab)2=a22ab+b2(a - b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2.
(3xy)2=9x26xy+y2(3x - y)^2 = 9x^2 - 6xy + y^2
This is necessary to remove the parentheses before distributing the outer variable.
2
Multiply the term 2x2x by each term inside the expanded binomial expression: 2x(9x26xy+y2)2x(9x^2 - 6xy + y^2).
18x312x2y+2xy218x^3 - 12x^2y + 2xy^2
Applying the distributive property expands the first part of the expression.
3
Distribute x2-x^2 to the terms inside the parentheses (18x15y)(18x - 15y), paying close attention to the signs.
18x3+15x2y-18x^3 + 15x^2y
This expands the third part of the expression and correctly distributes the negative sign.
4
Identify and combine the like terms of the form x2yx^2y from the expanded parts of the expression.
12x2y+15x2y=3x2y-12x^2y + 15x^2y = 3x^2y
To find the coefficient of x2yx^2y, we only need to sum the coefficients of the terms that contain exactly x2yx^2y.

Distribute and combine like terms for the first expression 3x(x2y)2x(x3y)3x(x - 2y) - 2x(x - 3y).
The expression simplifies to x2x^2.
First distribute the coefficients to get 3x26xy2x2+6xy3x^2 - 6xy - 2x^2 + 6xy. Then combine 3x22x2=x23x^2 - 2x^2 = x^2 and 6xy+6xy=0-6xy + 6xy = 0.
2
Distribute and combine like terms for the second expression 2(x2xy)3(xyy2)2(x^2 - xy) - 3(xy - y^2).
The expression simplifies to 2x25xy+3y22x^2 - 5xy + 3y^2.
Distribute the coefficients to get 2x22xy3xy+3y22x^2 - 2xy - 3xy + 3y^2. Note that distributing the negative sign of 3-3 to y2-y^2 results in +3y2+3y^2. Then combine 2xy3xy=5xy-2xy - 3xy = -5xy.
3
Distribute and combine like terms for the third expression x2(x2y)x(x2xy)x^2(x - 2y) - x(x^2 - xy).
The expression simplifies to x2y-x^2y.
Distribute to get x32x2yx3+x2yx^3 - 2x^2y - x^3 + x^2y. Note that distributing x-x to xy-xy gives +x2y+x^2y. The x3x3x^3 - x^3 terms cancel, leaving 2x2y+x2y=x2y-2x^2y + x^2y = -x^2y.

Multiply the expanded binomial by the coefficient 12\frac{1}{2}.
2u26uv+92v22u^2 - 6uv + \frac{9}{2}v^2
Distributing the constant factor of 12\frac{1}{2} to each term of the expanded binomial.
3
Distribute the term 23u-\frac{2}{3}u across the parenthetical expression (3u9v)(3u - 9v).
2u2+6uv-2u^2 + 6uv
Multiplying each term inside the parentheses by 23u-\frac{2}{3}u, making sure to distribute the negative sign properly: 23u3u=2u2-\frac{2}{3}u \cdot 3u = -2u^2 and 23u(9v)=6uv-\frac{2}{3}u \cdot (-9v) = 6uv.
4
Combine all terms and group like terms.
2u26uv+92v22u2+6uv23v22u^2 - 6uv + \frac{9}{2}v^2 - 2u^2 + 6uv - \frac{2}{3}v^2

Cevap: 4p2q+3q3-4p^2q + 3q^3

Cevap

4p2q+3q3-4p^2q + 3q^3
The correct answer is obtained by distributing all factors and negative signs, then combining the coefficients of the like terms. This yields 4p2q+3q3-4p^2q + 3q^3.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Distribute the term 2p22p^2 into the first parenthesis, 3q-3q into the second parenthesis, and the negative sign into the third parenthesis.
2p2(p3q)=2p36p2q2p^2(p - 3q) = 2p^3 - 6p^2q
3q(p2q2)=3p2q+3q3-3q(p^2 - q^2) = -3p^2q + 3q^3
(2p35p2q)=2p3+5p2q-(2p^3 - 5p^2q) = -2p^3 + 5p^2q
Expanding the terms removes the parentheses and prepares the expression for combining like terms.
2
Combine the expanded parts into a single expression and group the like terms together.
(2p32p3)+(6p2q3p2q+5p2q)+3q3(2p^3 - 2p^3) + (-6p^2q - 3p^2q + 5p^2q) + 3q^3
Grouping terms with identical variable parts makes combining coefficients straightforward.
3
Simplify the coefficients for each group of like terms.
0p3+(63+5)p2q+3q3=4p2q+3q30p^3 + (-6 - 3 + 5)p^2q + 3q^3 = -4p^2q + 3q^3
Simplifying the combined coefficients yields the final, simplified expression.

The correct sum of the coefficients is 4. By distributing all terms correctly: 3x2(2xy)=6x33x2y3x^2(2x - y) = 6x^3 - 3x^2y, 2y(x23xy)=2x2y+6xy2-2y(x^2 - 3xy) = -2x^2y + 6xy^2, and (4x3xy2)=4x3+xy2-(4x^3 - xy^2) = -4x^3 + xy^2. Combining the terms yields 2x35x2y+7xy22x^3 - 5x^2y + 7xy^2, which gives A=2A = 2, B=5B = -5, and C=7C = 7. Summing these values gives 25+7=42 - 5 + 7 = 4.
