Question

Multiply: 17n • (-4n²)
a) -68n³
b) 68n³
c) -68n
d) 68n

Answer 1

To multiply 17n by (-4n²), you need to multiply the coefficients and add the exponents of n. The correct answer is -68n³.

Step-by-step explanation:

To multiply 17n by (-4n²), you need to multiply the coefficients and add the exponents of n.

17n * (-4n²) = 17 * (-4) * n * n² = (-68) * n^(1+2) = -68n³

Therefore, the correct answer is a) -68n³.
