Question

Multiply (x-3)(2x^2-6x+4)

Answer 1

Well for this problem we can factor out 2x^2-6x+4 then it will be easier to multiply each term

Answer 2

can you factor 2x^2-6x+4

Answer 3

not in the least

Answer 4

just seperate it.

we get x(2x^2-6x+4) -3 (2x^2-6x+4)

2x^3 - 6x^2 + 4x - 6x^2 +18x - 12

2x^3 - 12x^2 + 22x - 12

Answer 5

you should really learn how to factor, because you will encounter so many more harder problems than this one and your factoring skill need to be good, 2x^2-6x+4 factors to
(2x-4)(x-1). Then the problem becomes (x-3)(2x-4)(x-1). I suggest foiling out (x-3)(x-1). Then multiply that product by (2x-4).
