Your answer should be a polynomial in standard form.

-p^4 + 4p^3 - 5p^2 + 8p - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribute the -p^2 to the p^2 and the 2. Then distribute the 4p to the p^2 and the 2. Then distribute the -3 to the p^2 and the 2.

When we expand:

-p^4 - 2p^2

+ 4p^3 + 8p

-3p^2 - 6

Group, ordering from highest to lowest "degree" (exponent).

-p^4 + 4p^3 - 2p^2 - 3p^2 + 8p - 6

Combine like terms.

-p^4 + 4p^3 - 5p^2 + 8p - 6
