Simplify: 25x(3/5

Question

x + 4)

Answer 1

The first step is to distribute the 25x to the terms inside the parentheses:

25x(3/5x + 4) = (25x)(3/5x) + (25x)(4)

Simplifying the first term:

(25x)(3/5x) = (25*3/5)(x*x) = 15x^2

Simplifying the second term:

(25x)(4) = 100x

Putting it all together:

25x(3/5x + 4) = 15x^2 + 100x
