x2−2x−3

Answer 1

To find the product of the polynomial expressions $(xy+1)(x-3)$, we can use the distributive property (also known as the FOIL method for binomials).

1. Distributing $xy$:

   • $xy\cdot x=x^{2}y$
   • $xy\cdot (-3)=-3xy$

2. Distributing $1$:

   • $1\cdot x=x$
   • $1\cdot (-3)=-3$

Now, combining all these terms together:

$$x^{2}y-3xy+x-3$$

So the product of the polynomial expressions $(xy+1)(x-3)$ is:

$$x^{2}y-3xy+x-3$$

Thus, the correct response is:

x²y - 3xy + x - 3.
