Question

the value of 2x(-3x) is​

Answer 1

Answer:

2x(-3x) , the variables are same thus we need to multiply the constant - 2× (-3) = -6 . Hence the answer is -6x

Answer 2

The correct answer to the question is -6$x^{2}$.

Explanation:

• The above question is about the multiplication of two variables with each other.
• There is a certain rule which we need to follow to solve such questions, which is as follows;
• Whenever there is a problem of multiplication involving constant and variables, always multiply constants with themselves and variables with themselves separately.
• And to get the final answer, multiply their final results together.
• Also, one must remember the multiplication rule while solving these type of questions;

i.e.,     Sign of Multiplication Terms                 Result

        1.      +   and   +                                ⇒           +

        2.     +   and   -                                 ⇒           -

        3.      -   and   +                                ⇒           -

        4.      -   and   -                                 ⇒           +

• Now, as given in the above multiplication; one term is positive i.e., (2x) and the other term is negative (-3x), So our final result would be with a negative sign (-).
• When we multiply 2 with -3 we get -6 and similarly the multiplication of x with x gives us $x^{2}$, then the final answer becomes -6$x^{2}$.

In this way, we get the value of 2x(-3x) as -6$x^{2}$.
