Step-by-step explanation:
(3a + 2b − c) (a − b + 2c)
Expand (3a + 2b − c) (a − b + 2c) by multiplying each term in the first expression by each term in the second expression.
3a ⋅ a + 3a (−b) + 3a (2c) + 2ba + 2b (−b) + 2b (2c) − ca − c (−b) − c (2c)
3 (a ⋅ a) + 3a (−b) + 3a (2c) + 2ba + 2b (−b) + 2b (2c) − ca − c (−b) − c (2c)
3a^2 + 3a (−b) + 3a (2c) + 2ba + 2b (−b) + 2b (2c) − ca − c (−b) − c (2c)
Rewrite using the commutative property of multiplication.
3a^2 + 3 ⋅ −1ab + 3a (2c) + 2ba + 2b (−b) + 2b (2c) − ca − c (−b) − c (2c)
3a^2 − 3ab + 3a (2c) + 2ba + 2b (−b) + 2b (2c) − ca − c (−b) − c (2c)
Rewrite using the commutative property of multiplication.
3a^2 − 3ab + 3 ⋅ 2ac + 2ba + 2b (−b) + 2b (2c) − ca − c (−b) − c (2c)
3a^2 − 3ab + 6ac + 2ba + 2b (−b) + 2b (2c) − ca − c (−b) − c (2c)
Rewrite using the commutative property of multiplication.
3a^2 − 3ab + 6ac + 2ba + 2 ⋅ −1b ⋅ b + 2b (2c) − ca − c (−b) − c (2c)
3a^2 − 3ab + 6ac + 2ba + 2 ⋅ −1 (b ⋅ b) + 2b (2c) − ca − c (−b) − c (2c)
3a^2 − 3ab + 6ac + 2ba + 2 ⋅ −1b^2 + 2b (2c) − ca − c (−b) − c (2c)
3a^2 − 3ab + 6ac + 2ba − 2b^2 + 2b (2c) − ca − c (−b) − c (2c)
Rewrite using the commutative property of multiplication.
3a^2 − 3ab + 6ac + 2ba − 2b^2 + 2 ⋅ 2bc − ca − c (−b) − c (2c)
3a^2 − 3ab + 6ac + 2ba − 2b^2 + 4bc − ca − c (−b) − c (2c)
Rewrite using the commutative property of multiplication.
3a^2 − 3ab + 6ac + 2ba − 2b^2 + 4bc − ca − 1 ⋅ −1cb − c (2c)
3a^2 − 3ab + 6ac + 2ba − 2b^2 + 4bc − ca + 1cb − c (2c)
3a^2 − 3ab + 6ac + 2ba − 2b^2 + 4bc − ca + cb − c (2c)
Rewrite using the commutative property of multiplication.
3a^2 − 3ab + 6ac + 2ba − 2b^2 + 4bc − ca + cb − 1 ⋅ 2c ⋅ c
3a^2 − 3ab + 6ac + 2ba − 2b^2 + 4bc − ca + cb − 1 ⋅ 2 (c ⋅ c)
3a^2 − 3ab + 6ac + 2ba − 2b^2 + 4bc − ca + cb − 1 ⋅ 2c^2
3a^2 − 3ab + 6ac + 2ba − 2b^2 + 4bc − ca + cb − 2c^2
3a^2 − 3ab + 2ab + 6ac − 2b^2 + 4bc − ca + cb − 2c^2
3a^2 − ab + 6ac − 2b^2 + 4bc − ca + cb − 2c^2
3a^2 − ab − 2b^2 + 4bc + 6ac − 1ac + cb − 2c^2
3a^2 − ab − 2b^2 + 4bc + 5ac + cb − 2c^2

-(10/7)
Step-by-step explanation:
See attached graphic. The slope of the Green Line is cut off in the problem photo, but can be calculated from the graph to find the slope of the Red Line. The answer options are on drugs; pick the one that looks closest.
