Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = Distance/Time

If one commuter plane averaged 200 mph flying to a city

Time taken to fly to the city will be;

t1 = d/200

d = 200t1

If he used 120 mph returning to the international airport, the total time used to the airport will be

t2 = d/120

d = 120t2

Since the distance are the same;

200t1 = 120t2

t1/t2 = 120/200

t1/t2 = 3/5

5t1 = 3t2

t1 = 3t2/5

Substitute into t1+t2 = 4

3t2/5 +t2 = 4

8t2/5 = 4

8t2 = 20

t2 = 20/8

t2 = 2.5min

Since d = 120t2

d = 120(2.5)

d = 300miles

Hence the total distance between the two airports is 300miles

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
