No, this would not be a linear function. Being linear means it creates a straight line, but this function has an x squared. Anytime x^2 is in a function, the graph is a u shape, called a parabola. A simple linear function is y=x :D

You can use (a+b)2 = a2+2ab+b2.
(2x - 3)2 = (2x)2 + 2(2x)(-3) + (-3)2 = 4x2 - 12x + 9
Or you can use FOIL.
(2x - 3)2 = (2x - 3)(2x - 3) = (2x)2 + (2x)(-3) + (-3)(2x) + (-3)2 = 4x2 - 12x + 9
