ANSWER


{a}^(2) + a - 6

Step-by-step explanation

The given expression is


(a + 3)(a - 2)

We expand using the distributive property to obtain:


a(a - 2) + 3(a - 2)

We multiply out the parenthesis to get:


{a}^(2) - 2a + 3a - 6

Let us now simplify by combining the middle terms to obtain;


{a}^(2) + a - 6
