Question

Pls help this is for my Alg two class

Answer 1

Let the no is x

product of x^2 and 8 is always 8x^2.....Ans

Answer 2

We want to look for key math words in the problem. I see "product" which means we will be multiplying something, and "square" which means we will be raising something to the power of 2. Now, lets get into it.

First, we will represent the unknown number as "x". So, we want the product of the square of "x" and 8. We now know that we must square the "x", which makes it "x²".

But, we want to know what the product of x² and 8. A product is the answer to a multiplication problem, which means we must multiply these two terms together. Therefore, the correct expression is (x²) x 8, which can be simplified to 8x².

Answer 3

8x²
