Take x-2 and insert it into 2x^2 + 3x-2 where the x is located
2x^2 + 3x-2
2(x-2)^2 + 3(x-2)-2
Now work out 2(x-2)^2 + 3(x-2)-2 also follow PEMDAS
2(x-2)^2 + 3(x-2)-2
Since (x-2)^2 is an Exponent, lets work with that first and expand (x-2)^2.
(x-2)^2
(x -2)(x-2)
x^2 -4x + 4
Now Multiply that by 2 because we have that in 2(x-2)^2
(x-2)^2 = x^2 -4x + 4
2(x-2)^2 = 2(x^2 -4x + 4)
2(x^2 -4x + 4) = 2x^2 - 8x + 8
2x^2 - 8x + 8
Now that 2(x-2)^2 is done lets move on to 3(x-2).
Use the distributive property and distribute the 3
3(x-2) = 3x - 6
All that is left is the -2
Now lets put it all together
2(x-2)^2 + 3(x-2)-2
2x^2 - 8x + 8 + 3x - 6 - 2
Now combine all our like terms
2x^2 - 8x + 8 + 3x - 6 - 2
Combine: 2x^2 = 2x^2
Combine: -8x + 3x = -5x
Combine: 8 - 6 - 2 = 0
So all we have left is
2x^2 - 5x
9 ten-thousands is 9*10,000=90,000. 90,000/10 is 9,000, or nine thousands.
