Simplify (y + 2)(y - 3)

62% Answer Correctly

	y² - 5y + 6
	y² + 5y + 6
	y² - y - 6
	y² + y - 6

Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses:

(y + 2)(y - 3)
(y x y) + (y x -3) + (2 x y) + (2 x -3)
y² - 3y + 2y - 6
y² - y - 6

What is 3a⁹ - 6a⁹?

	-3
	9
	18a⁹
	-3a⁹

Solution

To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.

3a⁹ - 6a⁹ = -3a⁹
