Answer:

D

Explanation:

product AB

= (x - 3)(x³ + 2x² + x - 2)

each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

x(x³ + 2x² + x - 2) - 3(x³ + 2x² + x - 2) ← distribute both parenthesis

=
x^(4) + 2x³ + x² - 2x - 3x³ - 6x² - 3x + 6 ← collect like terms

=
x^(4) - x³ - 5x² - 5x + 6
