To multiply the polynomials 2x+y and 5x-y+3 using a table, we can follow these steps:

Write the two polynomials side by side, with the terms arranged in descending order of degree:

2x + y

x | 5x - y + 3

Multiply each term in the first polynomial by each term in the second polynomial, and write the products in the table:

2x y

x | 5x² -xy 3x

-y y² -3y

5x² -xy +3x

-y² +3y

Simplify the products by combining like terms:

5x² -xy +3x -y² +3y

Therefore, the product of the polynomials 2x+y and 5x-y+3 is 5x² -xy +3x -y² +3y.
