Answer:


(4)/(3) x² -
(19)/(9) x +
(5)/(2)

Explanation:

Given

(2x -
(5)/(3) )(
(2)/(3) x -
(3)/(2) )

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

2x(
(2)/(3) x -
(3)/(2) ) -
(5)/(3) (
(2)/(3) x -
(3)/(2) ) ← distribute both parenthesis

=
(4)/(3) x² - 3x -
(10)/(9) x +
(5)/(2)

=
(4)/(3) x² -
(27)/(9) x -
(10)/(9) x +
(5)/(2)

=
(4)/(3) x² -
(37)/(9) x +
(5)/(2)
