(2x -5)(x + 3)

2x(x) = 2x²
2x(3) = 6x
-5(x) = -5x
-5(3) = -15

2x² + 6x - 5x - 15

simplify

2x² + 6x - 5x - 15

2x² + x - 15


2x² + x - 15 is your answer

hope this helps

Hi There!
 
Lets break this down.

If you distribute (2x-5) into (x+3)
You get 2x^2+6x-5x-15
That simplifies to 2x^2+x-15
Therefore your answer is 2x^2+x-15.

Hope this helps!
