Question

Multiply: (2x − 5)(3x2 − 4x 2)

a. 6x3 − 23x2 + 24x − 106
b. 6x3 − 7x2 + 24x − 106
c. 6x3 − 23x2 + 16x − 106
d. 6x3 − 7x2 + 16x − 106
e. 6x3 − 23x2 − 24x − 106

Answer 1

To multiply the given expressions (2x - 5)(3x2 - 4x 2), distribute each term of the first expression to each term of the second expression. Finally, combine like terms to get the answer 6x3 - 23x2.

Step-by-step explanation:

To multiply the given expressions (2x - 5)(3x^2 - 4x^2), we need to distribute each term of the first expression to each term of the second expression. This can be done as follows:

(2x - 5)(3x^2 - 4x^2) = 2x(3x^2 - 4x^2) - 5(3x^2 - 4x^2)

Simplifying further, we get:

6x^3 - 8x^3 - 15x^2 + 20x^2

Combining like terms, the final answer is:

6x^3 - 23x^2
