The expression ((x - 7)(x - 3)) in standard form is (x² - 10x + 21).

To write the expression ((x - 7)(x - 3)) in standard form, we need to multiply the two factors and simplify the resulting expression. Using the distributive property of multiplication, we get:


[(x - 7)(x - 3) = x(x - 3) - 7(x - 3) = x^2 - 3x - 7x + 21]

Simplifying the expression, we get:


[x^2 - 10x + 21]

Therefore, the expression ((x - 7)(x - 3)) in standard form is (x² - 10x + 21).

Complete question:

Expand. Write a polynomial in standard form for the expression: (x - 7)(x - 3)
