Answer 1

To multiply the polynomials (3x-1)(2x+4), you can use the distributive property.

First, you multiply 3x by each term in the second parentheses:
3x * 2x = 6x^2
3x * 4 = 12x

Next, you multiply -1 by each term in the second parentheses:
-1 * 2x = -2x
-1 * 4 = -4

Now, you can combine like terms:
6x^2 + 12x - 2x - 4

Combining the like terms, you have:
6x^2 + 10x - 4

So, the product of the polynomials (3x-1)(2x+4) is 6x^2 + 10x - 4.
