c) 2(4c2 2c + 3) d) (2n2 + n 1)(6)
e) 3(5m2 + 6m + 7)

4. Here is a students solution for a multiplication question.


(5k2 k 3)(2)
= 2(5k2) 2(k) 2(3)
= 10k2 2k 6

12r 2 8r 16
= + +
4 4 4
= 3r2 2r + 4

5. a) 2v + 2 b) 5k 3k
2
c) 5 + 2n d) 3x x + 1
2
e) 1 + y 2y

6. The divisor is 4, when writing the quotient expression as a sum of three fractions, each
denominator should be 4, rather than 4;
2
3r + 2r + 4
