What is the product of (4x - 2)(2 {x}^(2) + 3)

Question

What is the product of
`(4x - 2)(2 {x}^(2) + 3)`

Answer 1

(4x-2) ( 2x^2 +3)

We will multiply by using the FOIL method

F first terms 4x* 2x^2 = 8x^3

O outer terms 4x *3 = 12x

I inner terms -2 * 2x^2 = -4x^2

L last terms -2 *3 = -6

Add all the terms together

8x^3 +12x - 4x^2 -6

Arrange in decreasing order of x

8x^3 -4x^2 +12x -6
