Answer:
[tex]\huge\boxed{-2x(x+3)-(x+1)(x-2)=-3x^2-5x+2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]-2x(x+3)-(x+1)(x-2)[/tex]
Use the distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac
and FOIL: (a + b)(c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd
[tex]=(-2x)(x)+(-2x)(3)-\bigg[(x)(x)+(x)(-2)+(1)(x)+(1)(-2)\bigg]\\\\=-2x^2-6x-\bigg(x^2-2x+x-2\bigg)=-2x^2-6x-x^2-(-2x)-x-(-2)\\\\=-2x^2-6x-x^2+2x-x+2[/tex]
Combine like terms:
[tex]=(-2x^2-x^2)+(-6x+2x-x)+2=-3x^2+(-5x)+2\\\\=-3x^2-5x+2[/tex]
