Simplify 3x 5x-1

Question

(X+2) (3x-1)3

Answer 1

To simplify this expression, we first use the distributive property to expand the second expression:

3x * 5x - 3x * 1 + 5 * x * -1 = 15x^2 - 3x - 5x

Simplifying further:

15x^2 - 8x

Next, we use the distributive property again to expand the second expression:

(X + 2) * (3x - 1) = 3x^2 - x + 6x - 2

Combining like terms:

3x^2 + 5x - 2

So, the simplified expression is:

(15x^2 - 8x) / (3x^2 + 5x - 2)
