Question

6a³ (7a + 9a⁶)

Simplify the answer as much as possible

Answer 1

Hello David.

first you will multiply 6a³ by 7a

then you will multiply 6a³ by 9a⁶ last you will add/combine the terms.

multiply 6a³ by 7a; 6*7*a^3*a = 42a^4. (multiply numbers first then terms)

multiply 6a³ by 9a^6; 6*9*a^3*a^6 = 54a^9

the answer is 42a^4 + 54a^9

hope that helps
