Answer:
2x^3 + 9x^2 + 16x + 21.
Step-by-step explanation:
We first multiply the expression in the second parentheses by x , then by +3:
(x + 3)(2x^2 + 3x + 7)
= x(2x^2 + 3x + 7) + 3(2x^2 + 3x + 7)
= 2x^3 + 3x^2 + 7x + 6x^2 + 9x + 21 Now we add like terms:
= 2x^3 + 9x^2 + 16x + 21.
The slope of the line would be positive 5/1 instead of positive 3/1. the y-intercept stays the same.
