How do you write (5x^2 - 4x + 5) (3x^2 - 6x + 2)(5x2−4x+5)(3x2−6x+2) in standard form?
1 Answer
Explanation:
We must ensure that each term in the second bracket is multiplied by each term in the first bracket. This is illustrated below.
(color(red)(5x^2-4x+5))(3x^2-6x+2)(5x2−4x+5)(3x2−6x+2)
=color(red)(5x^2)(3x^2-6x+2)color(red)(-4x)(3x^2-6x+2)=5x2(3x2−6x+2)−4x(3x2−6x+2)
color(white)(xxxx)color(red)(+5)(3x^2-6x+2)××+5(3x2−6x+2) distributing gives.
15x^4-30x^3+10x^2-12x^3+24x^2-8x+15x^2-30x+1015x4−30x3+10x2−12x3+24x2−8x+15x2−30x+10 collecting like terms.
15x^4+(-30-12)x^3+(10+24+15)x^2+(-8-30)x+1015x4+(−30−12)x3+(10+24+15)x2+(−8−30)x+10
=15x^4-42x^3+49x^2-38x+10larr" in standard form"=15x4−42x3+49x2−38x+10← in standard form Writing in standard form means, start with the term of the highest power of the variable, followed by terms with decreasing powers of the variable.
