Answer: D. -1(3x+2)(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation: First, use the F.O.I.L. method (First, Outer, Inner, Last). Then combine all your like terms. After, multiply the whole outcome by negative one. So, 3
x^(2) turns into -3
x^(2) ; 5x turns into -5x; and 2 is -2. BOOM! you got the exact right answer.
