Explanation:

You are multiplying x² - 4x + 4 and 6x + 3.

This is set up like:

6x + 3(x² - 4x + 4)

To solve this, we want to multiply each term that is outside of the parentheses with each term that is inside of the parentheses.

Let's start with 6x.

6x • x² = 6x³

6x • -4x = -24x²

6x • 4 = 24x

These numbers will be in the first blank row.

Now, let's move onto 3.

3 • x² = 3x²

3 • -4x = -12x

3 • 4 = 12

These numbers will be in the second blank row.

Now let's write all these numbers together.

6x³ - 24x² + 24x + 3x² - 12x + 12

Combine like terms, pay attention to the exponent.

6x³ - 21x² + 12x + 12

Refer to the completed table below.

Hope this helps!
