Question

6x⁹ (8x+7)

Answer 1

Keila,

 

Use the distributive property:

 

6x⁹(8x + 7) = (6x⁹ * 8x) + (6x⁹ * 7)

 

Now, multiply the coefficients and exponents (when we multiply like variables with exponents, we add the exponents) together within the parentheses:

 

48x¹⁰ + 42x⁹

Answer 2

6x⁹(8x + 7)

(6x⁹)(8x) + (6x⁹)(7)          distribute

48x¹⁰ + 42x⁹                         simplify

Answer 3

Just distribute the 6x⁹ through (8x +7).

 

6x⁹ (8x +7) = 6x⁹(8x) + 6x⁹(7) = 48x¹⁰ + 42x⁹
