Here we will do more than give you the solution to 6x × 17x. We will also explain and teach you how we came up with the answer, so you can understand it and solve similar problems in the future without help.
In this problem, 6 and 17 are the coefficients and two Xs are the variables. When a coefficient is next to a variable there is an invisible multiplication sign. So you could rewrite the problem as follows:
6 × x × 17 × x =
So now you can multiply what are the same. You can multiply the coefficients together and the x variables together as follows:
6 × 17 = 102
x × x = x2
Then you put the answers together and make the multiplication sign invisible again to get the following answer:
6x × 17x = 102x2
If you multiply two same variables with exponents, you simply keep the variable and add the exponents. Also x with no exponent is the same as x1.
Here are some problems with answers that you should know based on what you learned on this page:
6x × 17x2 = 102x3
6x × 17x3 = 102x4
6x × 17x4 = 102x5
6x2 × 17x = 102x3
6x2 × 17x2 = 102x4
6x2 × 17x3 = 102x5
