5. Using the Distributive Property

Continue to next subchapter

Exercise 62 Page 42

Begin with the Distributive Property.

n^3-4n^2+3n

Practice makes perfect

To simplify the given expression, we will use the Distributive Property.

n(n^2-4n+3)

Distribute n

n(n^2)-n(4n)+n(3)

Multiply

n^3-4n^2+3n

Because none of the terms have the exact same combination of variables there are no like terms, and our expression cannot be simplified any further.
