Question
Multiply polynomial $ \, \color{blue}{ 2 } \, $ by $ \, \color{orangered}{ -2x-6 }$.
Answer
$$ \color{blue}{2} \cdot \left( \color{orangered}{-2x-6} \right) = -4x-12 $$
Explanation
We can use distribution property to multiply the polynomial by the monomial.
$$ \begin{aligned} \color{blue}{2} \cdot \left( -2x-6 \right) &= \color{blue}{2} \cdot \left( -2x\right) + \color{blue}{2} \cdot \left( -6\right) = \\ &= -4x-12 \end{aligned} $$This page was created using
