Question

find the product: (2x2-3x+5)(x-4) Sorry the exponents are big

Answer 1

2x^3-11x^2+17x-20

Answer 2

(2x^2-3x+5)(x-4)
= 2x^2 (x-4) -3x(x-4) +5(x-4)
= 2x^3 - 2x^2 (4) - 3x(x) - 3x(-4) + 5x +5(-4)
= 2x^3 - 8x^2 - 3x^2 + 12x + 5x -20
= Can you continue?

Answer 3

is this accurate?

Answer 4

Distributive property.\[(2x^2-3x+5)(x-4)=2x^2(x-4)-3x(x-4)+5(x-4)=2x^3-11x^2+17x-20\]
