What is the product of -2x^3+x-5 and x^3-3x-4?
Is the product of -2x^3+x-5 and x^3-3x-4 equal to the product of x^3-3x-4 and -2x^3+x-5 explain your answer.

Answer 1

Answer:Yes, the products are equal because of commutativity. To find the product, use distributive law. Just simplify the below:

-2x^3(x^3-3x-4) + x(x^3-3x-4) - 5(x^3-3x-4)

Answer 2

Yes, the products are equal because of commutativity. To find the product, use distributive law. Just simplify the below:


-2x^3(x^3-3x-4) + x(x^3-3x-4) - 5(x^3-3x-4).
