To find the product of \((2q^9 + 3q^7)(-6q^2 + 9)\), we can use the distributive property (also known as the FOIL method for binomials).
Let's distribute each term in the first polynomial by each term in the second polynomial:
-
First term \(2q^9\) multiplied by both terms in \(-6q^2 + 9\):
- \(2q^9 \cdot (-6q^2) = -12q^{11}\)
- \(2q^9 \cdot 9 = 18q^9\)
-
Second term \(3q^7\) multiplied by both terms in \(-6q^2 + 9\):
- \(3q^7 \cdot (-6q^2) = -18q^9\)
- \(3q^7 \cdot 9 = 27q^7\)
Now, we can combine all these results:
\[ -12q^{11} + 18q^9 - 18q^9 + 27q^7 \]
Now, notice that \(18q^9 - 18q^9 = 0\). So, we can simplify:
\[ -12q^{11} + 27q^7 \]
Therefore, the final answer is:
\(-12q^{11} + 27q^{7}\)
So, the correct response is: \(-12q^{11} + 27q^{7}\)
