Solve the Binomial Product: (-7-4y)(5x+6) Expansion Problem

Question

Solve the following equation:

(74y)(5x+6)= (-7-4y)(5x+6)=

Video Solution

Step-by-Step Solution

In order to simplify the given expression we must use the expanded distributive law as seen below:

(a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd (a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd

First, we'll perform the multiplication between the pairs of parentheses, using the mentioned distributive law, and then we'll combine like terms if possible. We'll do this while paying attention to the correct multiplication of signs:

(74y)(5x+6)=35x4220xy24y (-7-4y)(5x+6)=\\ -35x-42-20xy-24y Therefore, the correct answer is answer A.

Answer

35x4220xy24y -35x-42-20xy-24y
