Solution

Let's go through the problems in the image and solve them one by one.

Problem g:

3m2[(2m2m+1)(m2+m){2m(m2+1)}]3m^2 - [(2m^2 - m + 1)(m^2 + m) - \{2m(m^2 + 1)\}]

Step 1: Expand both terms inside the brackets:

  • For (2m2m+1)(m2+m)(2m^2 - m + 1)(m^2 + m): = 2m^4 + 2m^3 - m^3 - m^2 + m^2 + m = 2m^4 + m^3 + m$$
  • For 2m(m2+1)2m(m^2 + 1): =2m(m2+1)=2m3+2m= 2m(m^2 + 1) = 2m^3 + 2m

Step 2: Subtract the two results: (2m4+m3+m)(2m3+2m)=2m4m3m(2m^4 + m^3 + m) - (2m^3 + 2m) = 2m^4 - m^3 - m

Step 3: Substitute back into the expression:

= 3m^2 - 2m^4 + m^3 + m$$ So the simplified expression is: $$\boxed{-2m^4 + m^3 + 3m^2 + m}$$ --- ### Problem h: $$6k^2 - [(2k^2 - k)(k^2 + k) + \{(k^2 + k)(k + 3)\}]$$ Step 1: Expand the terms inside the brackets: - For $$(2k^2 - k)(k^2 + k)$$: $$= 2k^2(k^2 + k) - k(k^2 + k) = 2k^4 + 2k^3 - k^3 - k^2 = 2k^4 + k^3 - k^2$$ - For $$(k^2 + k)(k + 3)$$: $$= k^2(k + 3) + k(k + 3) = k^3 + 3k^2 + k^2 + 3k = k^3 + 4k^2 + 3k$$ Step 2: Add the two results: $$(2k^4 + k^3 - k^2) + (k^3 + 4k^2 + 3k) = 2k^4 + 2k^3 + 3k^2 + 3k$$ Step 3: Substitute back into the expression: $$6k^2 - (2k^4 + 2k^3 + 3k^2 + 3k) = 6k^2 - 2k^4 - 2k^3 - 3k^2 - 3k = -2k^4 - 2k^3 + 3k^2 - 3k$$ So the simplified expression is: $$\boxed{-2k^4 - 2k^3 + 3k^2 - 3k}$$ --- Would you like me to continue with the other problems (i, j, k, l), or do you have any questions so far? Feel free to ask for clarification! Here are 5 related questions to practice: 1. How would you simplify an expression with nested parentheses and variables like $$a(a^2 + b) - b(b^2 + a)$$? 2. How does distributing work when multiplying two binomials, such as $$(x + 2)(x - 3)$$? 3. Can you solve $$5m^3 - (3m^2 - m)$$ by combining like terms? 4. What strategies help in recognizing and simplifying higher-degree polynomials? 5. How can factoring simplify polynomial subtraction or addition? ### Tip: When solving expressions with nested brackets or parentheses, always start simplifying the innermost parts first, then work outward to avoid mistakes.
