Multiplying two things makes them one term

You so nearly had it, look "two things"! Yes axb is 2 Terms being Multiplied to make them one 😂

Immediately before the definition you’re now lying about

Nope! Says exactly what I already said, and I have no idea why you think it says otherwise. Now read the next page, which tells you ab is one Term and doesn't say that axb is 1 Term. 🙄 You're proven wrong by the very textbook you're quoting from! 😂

Fuck your non-sequitur

Says person trying to disprove a(b+c)=(ab+ac) by dragging a(bc)²=ab²c² to try and make a false equivalence argument 😂

a(b+c)2 is a*(b+c)2

No it isn't! 😂 The first is one term, the second is two terms

for example - these four math textbooks.

Says Mr. Ostrich, still ignoring the dozens of textbooks I posted saying a(b+c)=(ab+ac)

No textbook will ever say it produces an a2 term

No, it produces an ab term and an ac term, a(b+c)=(ab+ac) 🙄

You made it up. You’re just full of shit

Says Mr. Ostrich, now completely full of shit, still ignoring the dozens of textbooks I posted, including ones written before I was even born
