Question

Simplify this expression.

6x2(3x)

Answer 1

36x

6*2(3x)

6*6x multiply 2 and 3x to get 6x

36x multiply 6*6x to get 36x

Answer 2

For this case we must simplify the following expression:

`6x ^ 2 (3x)`

We have to:

`6 * 3 = 18`

By definition of multiplication of powers of equal base we have that the same base is placed and the exponents are added:

`a ^ n * a ^ m = a ^ {n + m}`

So:

`x ^ 2 * x = x^(2 + 1) = x ^ 3`

Finally we have:

`6x ^ 2 (3x) = 18x ^ 3`

Answer:

`18x ^ 3`
