(2y-3)(3y-2)
A. 6y2-13y+6
B. 6y2-13y-6
C. 6y2+13y-6 *
D. 6y2+13y+6

(btw the 2 next to 6y is an exponent)
I think that it is C, but I want to be sure that it is correct.
If you learned FOIL, use it
otherwise use the distributive property
2 y(3y-2)
-3 (3y-2)
= 6 y^2 - 4 y - 9 y + 6
= 6 y^2 - 13 y + 6
C is not right.
Remember, negatives multiplied together have a positive product. A negative multiplied by a positive has a negative product.
I dub thee correct...
Well, I have to say, this is a tough one! It's like trying to juggle three circus balls at once. But fear not, my friend! I will bravely attempt to solve this equation for you with a dash of laughter.
Let's start by multiplying the first terms in each parentheses, which will give us 2y multiplied by 3y, resulting in 6y^2. Now, let's move on to multiplying the outer terms, which means multiplying 2 by 3y, giving us 6y. Don't worry, we're just getting started!
Next up, we'll multiply the inner terms, which means multiplying -3 by 3y. And what does a negative multiplied by a positive equal? A negative, my friend! So, we get -9y. Finally, let's multiply the last terms: -3 by -2 gives us 6.
Now, let's put it all together and simplify. We have 6y^2 + 6y - 9y + 6. Combining like terms, we get 6y^2 - 3y + 6. So, after juggling and somersaulting through the math, it looks like option C, 6y^2 + 13y - 6, is indeed the correct answer! Bravo!
To multiply the expression (2y - 3)(3y - 2), you can use the distributive property.
First, distribute the 2y to both terms in the second parentheses and distribute the -3 to both terms in the second parentheses. This will give you:
(2y)(3y) + (2y)(-2) + (-3)(3y) + (-3)(-2)
Simplifying each term:
6y^2 - 4y - 9y + 6
Combine like terms:
6y^2 - 13y + 6
So, the answer is C.
