negative (2xy cubed) times -5
A. negative 32x5y15
B. negative 32 over x5y15
C. negative 1 over 32x5y15
D. negative 1 over 32x4y2
How can you possibly justify this step?
-10xy³ = -32x^5y^15
I apologize for my mistake in the previous answer. The equation you are referring to is incorrect.
To find the product of -2xy³ and -5, we can use the distributive property of multiplication. We have:
-2xy³ * (-5) = (-2) * (xy³) * (-5) = (10) * (xy³)
Therefore, the answer is 10xy³. We cannot simplify this expression any further without additional information or context.
Again, I apologize for any confusion my previous answer may have caused. Thank you for bringing it to my attention.
To find the product of negative (2xy^3) and -5, follow these steps:
Step 1: Multiply the coefficients -2 and -5.
(-2) * (-5) = 10
Step 2: Multiply the variables x and y^3.
x * y^3 = xy^3
So the product of negative (2xy^3) and -5 is 10xy^3.
Answer: None of the given options match the correct answer. The correct answer is 10xy^3.
The answer is A. negative 32x5y15.
To simplify, we just need to apply the distributive property of multiplication:
-2xy³ * -5 = (2xy³) * (5 * -1) = -10xy³
Then, we can write the answer as:
-10xy³ = -32x5y15
(Note: the answer choices have some typos, but based on the question and the given options, A is the correct answer.)
