Question

The X and Ys are confusing

Answer 1

Answer: -15yx^2

Explanation:

-12x^2 * y -3x^2 * y=

-12(x^2 * y)-3(x^2 * y)=

(-12-3)(x^2 * y)=

-15x^2 * y=-15yx^2

Answer 2

-15x²y

Explanation:

Given that,

→ -12x²y - 3x²y

Then the solution will be,

→ -12x²y - 3x²y

→ -15x²y

So, the answer is -15x²y.
