Question

12a^2y^2-6ayc+3ac^2-6a^2yc-c+2ay

Answer 1

24a^2y^2-6acy+3ac^3y-c+2ay

Answer 2

The expression you provided is a polynomial in three variables, a, y, and c. To simplify it, you can factor out common terms:

12a^2y^2 - 6ayc + 3ac^2 - 6a^2yc - c + 2ay

First, let's group the terms that have common variables:

(12a^2y^2 - 6a^2yc) + (-6ayc + 2ay) + (3ac^2 - c)

Now, factor out the common terms in each group:

6a^2y(2y - c) + -2ay(3c - 1) + c(3ac - 1)

So, the simplified expression is:

6a^2y(2y - c) - 2ay(3c - 1) + c(3ac - 1)
