Answer:
D) 2x² + 4x - 30
Step-by-step explanation:
Follow the FOIL method:
FOIL =
First
Outside
Inside
Last
...and is the order you multiply to solve:
(x + 5)(2x - 6) =
(x)(2x) = 2x²
(x)(-6) = -6x
(5)(2x) = 10x
(5)(-6) = -30
Combine like terms. Simplify:
2x² -6x + 10x - 30 = 2x² (-6x + 10x) - 30 = 2x² + 4x - 30
2x² + 4x - 30 is your answer.
