1. find the product (13 – x2)(x + 2). -x3 - 2x2 + 13x + 26

The product is -x³ - 2x² + 13x + 26

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise how to find the product of two binomials

- If (ax ± b) and (cx ± d) are two binomials, where a , b , c , d are constant

 their product is:

# Multiply (ax) by (cx) ⇒ 1st term in the 1st binomial and 1st term in the

  2nd binomial

# Multiply (ax) by (d) ⇒ 1st term in 1st binomial and 2nd term in

  2nd binomial

# Multiply (b) by (cx) ⇒ 2nd term in 1st binomial and 1st term in

  2nd binomial

# Multiply (b) by (d) ⇒ 2nd term in 1st binomial and 2nd term in

  2nd binomial

# (ax ± b)(cx ± d) = cx² ± adx ± bcx ± bd

- Add the terms adx and bcx because they are like terms

* Now lets solve the problem

- There are two binomials (13 - x²) and (x + 2)

- We can find their product by the way above

∵ (13)(x) = 13x ⇒ 1st term in the 1st binomial and 1st term in the

  2nd binomial

∵ (13)(2) = 26 ⇒ 1st term in 1st binomial and 2nd term in

  2nd binomial

∵ (-x²)(x) = -x³ ⇒ 2nd term in 1st binomial and 1st term in

  2nd binomial

∵ (-x²)(2) = -2x² ⇒ 2nd term in 1st binomial and 2nd term in

  2nd binomial

∴ The product of (13 - x²)(x + 2) = 13x + 26 - x³ - 2x²

- There is no like terms

- Lets arrange the terms from greatest power to smallest power

∴ The product is -x³ - 2x² + 13x + 26

answer: (x)+4-5=-3
