<span>Part A: Area = length * width = (6x^2 + 3x - 2) * (x^3 - 2x + 5) Multiply it out and simplify.

part B: </span><span>Take the first term 6x^2 and multiply each of the term x^3, -2x & 5. Then take 3x and multiply each of the term x^3, -2x & 5. Do the same with -2. Then add like terms and simplify.</span>
