what is 3y(7y - 6) + 16y simplified
21y^2-2y or y(21y-2)
Oh sorry, I jst wrote the answer and did not tell you how i arrived at it which means you wont learn from it to solve similar problems so here's how i arrived at my answer:
First, multiply the terms inside the bracket by the one outside. So it'll be:
((7y*3y)-(6*3y)) + 16y = (21y^2 -18y) + 16y
Then, you open the brackets and simplify like terms:
21y^2-18y+16y = 21y^2 -2y
or you can decide to bring out the common factor, then you answer will be y(21y-2)
To simplify the expression 3y(7y - 6) + 16y, you need to apply the distributive property and then combine like terms.
Step 1: Distribute the 3y to the terms inside the parentheses:
3y * 7y = 21y^2
3y * -6 = -18y
Step 2: Combine the distributed terms with the 16y:
21y^2 - 18y + 16y
Step 3: Combine like terms:
-18y + 16y = -2y
So, the simplified expression is 21y^2 - 2y.
