Simplify the following algebraic expression completely. Write your final answer in standard form (highest to lowest power):

−2(n2−4n+3)+3n(n−2)-2(n^2 - 4n + 3) + 3n(n - 2)
Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: n^2 + 2n - 6; n^2+2n-6; 1n^2 + 2n - 6; n^2 + 2n -6; n^2+2n - 6; 1n^2+2n-6

Cevap

n^2 + 2n - 6
The completely simplified form is determined by first distributing the multipliers into their respective parentheses. For the first group, -2(n^2 - 4n + 3) expands to -2n^2 + 8n - 6. For the second group, 3n(n - 2) expands to 3n^2 - 6n. Combining the expansions results in -2n^2 + 8n - 6 + 3n^2 - 6n. By adding the coefficients of like terms, the final standard form evaluates to n^2 + 2n - 6.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Distribute -2 into the first polynomial, (n^2 - 4n + 3).
-2n^2 + 8n - 6
The distributive property requires multiplying the outside term by every term inside the parentheses. Care must be taken with the negative sign: -2 multiplied by -4n becomes positive 8n.
2
Distribute 3n into the second binomial, (n - 2).
3n^2 - 6n
Using the distributive property again, multiplying 3n by n gives 3n^2, and 3n multiplied by -2 gives -6n.
3
Group the like terms from both expansions together.
(-2n^2 + 3n^2) + (8n - 6n) - 6
Like terms are terms that share the exact same variables raised to the exact same power. Grouping them helps systematically combine the coefficients.
4
Simplify the grouped terms.
n^2 + 2n - 6
Adding the coefficients of the grouped terms: -2 + 3 = 1 for the n^2 terms, and 8 - 6 = 2 for the n terms.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: −x+16-x + 16

Cevap

The correct simplified expression is −x+16-x + 16.
The expression correctly applies the distributive property and the rules for combining like terms. Distributing −2-2 into (3x−4)(3x - 4) yields −6x+8-6x + 8. Combining the constants (8+88 + 8) gives 1616, and combining the variable terms (−6x+5x-6x + 5x) gives −x-x.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Distribute the −2-2 to the terms inside the parentheses.
8−6x+8+5x8 - 6x + 8 + 5x
According to the order of operations (PEMDAS), the multiplication involved in the distributive property must be performed before addition and subtraction.
2
Group the like terms together.
(−6x+5x)+(8+8)(-6x + 5x) + (8 + 8)
Only terms with the same variable configuration (or constants) can be added or subtracted together.
3
Combine the like terms.
−x+16-x + 16
Adding the coefficients of the variable terms (−6+5=−1-6 + 5 = -1) and adding the constants (8+8=168 + 8 = 16) yields the fully simplified expression.

Which of the following represents the correctly simplified form of this expression?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: −a2+5ab+6b2-a^2 + 5ab + 6b^2

Cevap

The correctly simplified form is −a2+5ab+6b2-a^2 + 5ab + 6b^2.
The expression correctly applies the distributive property while carefully maintaining negative signs, and properly groups terms with identical variable combinations (a2a^2, abab, and b2b^2) to reach the final simplified form.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Distribute −2a-2a into the first set of parentheses.
−6a2+8ab-6a^2 + 8ab
Applying the distributive property: (−2a×3a)+(−2a×−4b)(-2a \times 3a) + (-2a \times -4b). A negative term multiplied by a negative term results in a positive term.
2
Distribute −3b-3b into the second set of parentheses.
−3ab+6b2-3ab + 6b^2
Applying the distributive property: (−3b×a)+(−3b×−2b)(-3b \times a) + (-3b \times -2b). Again, the two negative factors produce a positive result.
3
Write out the full expanded expression by combining the distributed parts with the remaining term.
−6a2+8ab−3ab+6b2+5a2-6a^2 + 8ab - 3ab + 6b^2 + 5a^2
Setting up the expression to easily identify and group like terms together.
4
Group and combine the like terms.
−a2+5ab+6b2-a^2 + 5ab + 6b^2
Combining the a2a^2 terms (−6a2+5a2=−a2-6a^2 + 5a^2 = -a^2) and the abab terms (8ab−3ab=5ab8ab - 3ab = 5ab). The b2b^2 term remains unchanged.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 4x2+22x+124x^2 + 22x + 12

Cevap

The correct expression is 4x2+22x+124x^2 + 22x + 12.
The correct expression is found by following the order of operations: first expanding the terms inside the innermost parentheses, then combining like terms within the brackets, next distributing the negative multiplier to all terms in the brackets, and finally combining all remaining like terms.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Expand the first part of the expression by distributing 2x2x.
2x(3x−4)=6x2−8x2x(3x - 4) = 6x^2 - 8x
Distribution is required to remove the initial parentheses.
2
Simplify the expression inside the square brackets by distributing and combining like terms.
x(x−2)−4(2x+1)=x2−2x−8x−4=x2−10x−4x(x - 2) - 4(2x + 1) = x^2 - 2x - 8x - 4 = x^2 - 10x - 4
According to the order of operations, simplify the innermost grouping symbols first.
3
Distribute the −3-3 across the simplified expression from the brackets.
−3(x2−10x−4)=−3x2+30x+12-3(x^2 - 10x - 4) = -3x^2 + 30x + 12
The negative sign and the constant must be multiplied by every term inside the brackets.
4
Substitute all parts back into the main expression and combine like terms.
(6x2−8x)+(−3x2+30x+12)+x2=(6x2−3x2+x2)+(−8x+30x)+12=4x2+22x+12(6x^2 - 8x) + (-3x^2 + 30x + 12) + x^2 = (6x^2 - 3x^2 + x^2) + (-8x + 30x) + 12 = 4x^2 + 22x + 12
Combining coefficients of terms with the same variables and exponents yields the final simplified polynomial.

Cevap

The first expression maps to −2x2−2xy-2x^2 - 2xy, the second expression maps to y2y^2, the third expression maps to −2xy+9y2-2xy + 9y^2, and the fourth expression maps to 2x2−4y22x^2 - 4y^2.
Each expression represents a distinct structural archetype for polynomial simplification. By systematically applying the order of operations—expanding binomials, distributing negative coefficients, and resolving nested grouping symbols from the inside out—all like terms can be properly combined to reach the correct canonical form.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Simplify the first expression by resolving innermost parentheses, then brackets, then combining terms.
3x2−6xy−[2x2−4xy+3x2]3x^2 - 6xy - [2x^2 - 4xy + 3x^2] simplifies to 3x2−6xy−5x2+4xy3x^2 - 6xy - 5x^2 + 4xy, which yields −2x2−2xy-2x^2 - 2xy.
Following the order of operations from the innermost grouping symbols prevents sign errors when distributing negative coefficients.
2
Simplify the second expression by expanding the binomial square and distributing.
(4x2−4xy+y2)−(4x2−4xy)(4x^2 - 4xy + y^2) - (4x^2 - 4xy) simplifies directly to y2y^2.
Proper binomial expansion (a−b)2=a2−2ab+b2(a-b)^2 = a^2 - 2ab + b^2 avoids the common error of dropping the middle term, allowing opposite terms to cancel.
3
Simplify the third expression using the difference of squares formula, then distribute the negative.
−(x2−9y2)+x2−2xy-(x^2 - 9y^2) + x^2 - 2xy simplifies to −x2+9y2+x2−2xy-x^2 + 9y^2 + x^2 - 2xy, which reduces to −2xy+9y2-2xy + 9y^2.
Recognizing the difference of squares simplifies multiplication, and properly distributing the outer negative sign ensures the squared variable term has the correct positive sign.
4
Simplify the fourth expression by distributing within the brackets before multiplying by the outer coefficient.
4xy−2[−x2+2xy+2y2]4xy - 2[-x^2 + 2xy + 2y^2] simplifies to 4xy+2x2−4xy−4y2=2x2−4y24xy + 2x^2 - 4xy - 4y^2 = 2x^2 - 4y^2.
Combining like terms inside the bracket before multiplying by the outer constant significantly reduces the chance of sign and variable combination errors.

Cevap: 5k−75k - 7

Cevap

The correct simplified expression is 5k−75k - 7.
The expression is simplified by first distributing the −2-2 into (k+4)(k + 4) to get −2k−8-2k - 8. Next, the like terms are combined: 7k−2k7k - 2k becomes 5k5k, and the constants −8-8 and 11 combine to −7-7. This results in the final simplified expression of 5k−75k - 7.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Apply the distributive property to the term −2(k+4)-2(k + 4).
7k−2k−8+17k - 2k - 8 + 1
The multiplier −2-2 must be distributed to both kk and 44 inside the parentheses.
2
Group the like terms together.
(7k−2k)+(−8+1)(7k - 2k) + (-8 + 1)
Like terms (variables with the same exponent, and constants) are grouped so they can be combined.

Cevap: 6a2−10ab−8b26a^2 - 10ab - 8b^2

Cevap

The simplified polynomial is 6a2−10ab−8b26a^2 - 10ab - 8b^2.
The correct answer is found by first distributing the outer terms to eliminate parentheses, carefully observing negative signs. Distributing 3a3a gives 6a2−15ab6a^2 - 15ab. Distributing −2b-2b gives −2ab−8b2-2ab - 8b^2. Adding the +7ab+7ab at the end produces the expanded expression 6a2−15ab−2ab−8b2+7ab6a^2 - 15ab - 2ab - 8b^2 + 7ab. Combining the like terms (−15ab−2ab+7ab-15ab - 2ab + 7ab) yields −10ab-10ab, resulting in the final expression 6a2−10ab−8b26a^2 - 10ab - 8b^2.

Adım Adım Çözüm

The simplified expression is 10a2−13ab+12b210a^2 - 13ab + 12b^2.
The correct answer is derived by first expanding the inner products (3ab−12b23ab - 12b^2 and −2a2−2ab-2a^2 - 2ab), combining them to get ab−12b2−2a2ab - 12b^2 - 2a^2, and then subtracting this entire grouped result from the expanded outer product (8a2−12ab8a^2 - 12ab). Properly distributing the negative sign to all terms from the bracket yields 10a2−13ab+12b210a^2 - 13ab + 12b^2.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Distribute the terms inside the square brackets.
3b(a−4b)=3ab−12b23b(a - 4b) = 3ab - 12b^2 and −2a(a+b)=−2a2−2ab-2a(a + b) = -2a^2 - 2ab
According to the order of operations, simplify the innermost expressions first.
2
Combine like terms inside the brackets.
[3ab−12b2−2a2−2ab]=[ab−12b2−2a2][3ab - 12b^2 - 2a^2 - 2ab] = [ab - 12b^2 - 2a^2]
Simplifying the bracket's contents reduces complexity before distributing the negative sign.
3
Distribute the terms outside the brackets.
4a(2a−3b)=8a2−12ab4a(2a - 3b) = 8a^2 - 12ab
Expand the remaining multiplication.
4
Distribute the negative sign to the terms from the bracket.
−(ab−12b2−2a2)=−ab+12b2+2a2-(ab - 12b^2 - 2a^2) = -ab + 12b^2 + 2a^2
Subtracting a polynomial requires reversing the sign of every term inside.
5
Combine all remaining like terms.
8a2−12ab−ab+12b2+2a2=10a2−13ab+12b28a^2 - 12ab - ab + 12b^2 + 2a^2 = 10a^2 - 13ab + 12b^2
Group terms with identical variable parts to find the final simplified form.

Cevap

The expressions simplify as follows: the first expression simplifies to 4p² - 11pq; the second to -2p² + 14pq; the third to 4p² + 5pq; and the fourth to -2p² + 3pq.
Each expression is correctly simplified by first distributing the outer multipliers to every term inside their respective parentheses, paying close attention to negative signs. Once expanded, like terms (terms containing p² and terms containing pq) are combined by adding or subtracting their coefficients.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Simplify the first expression: 3p(2p - q) - 2(p² + 4pq)
6p² - 3pq - 2p² - 8pq = 4p² - 11pq
Distribution of the outside terms into the parentheses, followed by grouping like terms.
2
Simplify the second expression: -4(p² - 2pq) + 2p(p + 3q)
-4p² + 8pq + 2p² + 6pq = -2p² + 14pq
Carefully distribute the negative constant (-4), changing the inner sign to positive 8pq, then combine like terms.
3
Simplify the third expression: p(5p + 2q) - (p² - 3pq)
5p² + 2pq - p² + 3pq = 4p² + 5pq
Distribute the variable p and distribute the negative sign to flip the inner signs, then collect like terms.
4
Simplify the fourth expression: 2(3p² - pq) - p(8p - 5q)
6p² - 2pq - 8p² + 5pq = -2p² + 3pq
Distribute the 2 and the -p, ensuring the multiplication of -p and -5q results in +5pq, then combine.

Cevap

Each unsimplified expression matches exactly one standard form polynomial upon successful expansion and collection of like terms.
Each pairing is correct because the unsimplified expressions rigidly evaluate to the exact standard forms provided when algebraic expansion and simplification rules are followed without computational errors.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Simplify the first expression by expanding and subtracting the grouped terms.
−3a(2a−b)−(a−2b)(2a+b)-3a(2a - b) - (a - 2b)(2a + b) simplifies to −8a2+6ab+2b2-8a^2 + 6ab + 2b^2.

2ab(a−3b)−a(2ab−5b2)2ab(a - 3b) - a(2ab - 5b^2) simplifies to −ab2-ab^2.
Distributing the multipliers across the parentheses isolates terms that naturally cancel or combine.
3
Simplify the third expression by expanding the perfect square.
4(a2−ab+b2)−(2a−b)24(a^2 - ab + b^2) - (2a - b)^2 simplifies to 3b23b^2.
The expansion of (2a−b)2(2a - b)^2 creates terms that precisely offset the a2a^2 and abab terms in the distributed trinomial.
4
Simplify the fourth expression by expanding all grouped and squared segments.
a2(2b−1)−b(a2−2a)+(a−b)2−b2a^2(2b - 1) - b(a^2 - 2a) + (a - b)^2 - b^2 simplifies to a2ba^2b.
Combining the resulting elements reveals that nearly all terms possess additive inverses, leaving only the combination of 2a2b−a2b2a^2b - a^2b.

Cevap: −6y+24-6y + 24

Cevap

The correct simplified expression is −6y+24-6y + 24.
The expression is correctly simplified by first distributing the −3-3 across the terms in the parentheses, which results in −6y+12-6y + 12. Adding the initial 1212 to this new constant gives a final expression of −6y+24-6y + 24.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Distribute the −3-3 to both terms inside the parentheses.
12−6y+1212 - 6y + 12
The distributive property requires multiplying the term immediately outside the parentheses by each term inside.
2
Combine the constant terms.
−6y+24-6y + 24
Like terms (the constants 1212 and 1212) must be added together to fully simplify the expression.
