Question
Multiply polynomial $ \, \color{blue}{ 4x^{26} } \, $ by $ \, \color{orangered}{ x^{23}-3 }$.
Answer
$$ \color{blue}{4x^{26}} \cdot \left( \color{orangered}{x^{23}-3} \right) = 4x^{49}-12x^{26} $$
Explanation
We can use distribution property to multiply the polynomial by the monomial.
$$ \begin{aligned} \color{blue}{4x^{26}} \cdot \left( x^{23}-3 \right) &= \color{blue}{4x^{26}} \cdot x^{23} + \color{blue}{4x^{26}} \cdot \left( -3\right) = \\ &= 4x^{49}-12x^{26} \end{aligned} $$This page was created using
