Question

How do you simplify `(3x + 2)(2x -3)`?

Answer 1

`= color(blue)(6x^2 -5x - 6`

Explanation:

`color(blue)((3x+2)) * (2x−3)`

Both terms of the first bracket are multiplied with both terms of the second bracket.

`= color(blue)((3x)) * (2x−3)+ color(blue)((2)) * (2x-3)`

`= 6x^2 -9x +4x - 6`

`= color(blue)(6x^2 -5x - 6`
