We have the following expression: 2x (x - 6) - 7x2 - (13x - 3) We will solve the expression step by step. We solve the parentheses: 2x ^ 2 - 12x - 7x ^ 2 - 13x + 3 Now we add similar terms: x ^ 2 (2-7) + x (-12-13) + 3 Rewriting: -5x ^ 2 - 25x + 3 Answer: The simple form of the expression is: B.) -5x2 - 25x + 3
