Question

3.Write the product as a trinomial. (2r – 5)(r + 10)

a. 2r2 – 50 b. 2r2 + 15r – 50 c. 2r2 – 25r – 50 d. 3r2 + 5r + 50

Answer 1

Use: (a + b)(c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd


`(2r-5)(r+10)=(2r)(r)+(2r)(10)+(-5)(r)+(-5)(10)=2r^2+20r-5r-50=2r^2+15r-50`

Answer: b. 2r² + 15r - 50

Answer 2

b is the correct answer
