Answer:

x²-4x+7

-x²-6x-12

Explanation:

1.) the first thing we do is expand the exponent (or mulitply (x-2)(x-2) the images below will show you how to do that

We get x²-4x+4 and then just need to add three

x²-4x+7

2.)

We do the same thing (expand the exponent) and get x²+6x+9

which means so far we have

-(x²+6x+9)-3

carry out the negative sign and subtract 3

-x²-6x-12
