Question

Expand & simplify: (x - 2)(x - 3)

Answer 1

x^2-5x + 6

Explanation:

Here, we want to expand the given expressions

To do this, we multiply each term in the first bracket with each term in the second

We then proceed to collect like terms

We have this as;

x(x-3) - 2(x-3)

= x^2 - 3x -2x + 6

= x^2 -5x + 6
