Algebraic Functions - Same Variable Times Bracketed Terms (Level 1)

This math topic focuses on simplifying algebraic functions, specifically involving a single variable multiplied by bracketed terms. It is part of a broader introduction to polynomials and quadratics. Each problem presents an expression for students to expand and equate it with one of the multiple-choice answers, testing their ability to manipulate algebraic expressions accurately. Example exercises include expanding expressions like y(y + 3) or d(d - 6) and identifying equivalent forms from a list of options. This helps students recognize the correct expanded form of polynomial expressions and sharpens their algebraic manipulation skills.
