Answer 1

Answer:

18x⁴ - 30x³ + 66x² - 40x + 56

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Distribute

• (6x² + 8) (3x² - 5x + 7)
• 6(3x² - 5x + 7) x² + 8(3x² - 5x + 7)

2) Distribute

• 6(3x² - 5x + 7) x² + 8(3x² - 5x + 7)
• 18x⁴ - 30x³ + 42x² + 8(3x² - 5x + 7)

3) Distribute

• 18x⁴ - 30x³ + 42x² + 8(3x² - 5x + 7)
• 18x⁴ - 30x³ + 42x² + 24x² - 40x + 56

4) Combine like terms

• 18x⁴ - 30x³ + 42x² + 24x² - 40x + 56
• 18x⁴ - 30x³ + 66x² - 40x + 56
