Answer:

(2x - 5) (3x^2 + 5x - 7) = 6x^3 - 5x^2 - 39x + 35

Explanation:

Given:

2x - 5 and 3x2 + 5x - 7

Product of two values means multiplication of the two values

(2x - 5) (3x^2 + 5x - 7)

6x^3 + 10x^2 - 14x - 15x^2 - 25x + 35

Collect like terms

6x^3 + 10x^2 - 15x^2 - 14x - 25x + 35

Simplify

6x^3 - 5x^2 - 39x + 35

(2x - 5) (3x^2 + 5x - 7) = 6x^3 - 5x^2 - 39x + 35

Therefore product of 2x - 5 and 3x2 + 5x - 7 is 6x^3 - 5x^2 - 39x + 35
