Final answer:

The simplest form of 2x^3 - x^2 + 3 (x^3 - 4x^2) is 6x^3 -7x^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The simplest form of 2x^3 - x^2 + 3 (x^3 - 4x^2) is:

  1. 6x^3 -7x^2

To simplify the expression, we need to distribute the 3 to both terms in the parenthesis:

2x^3 - x^2 + 3x^3 - 12x^2

Combining like terms, we get 5x^3 - 13x^2.
