Answer:

-8x³+18x²-12x+27

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x²-3(4x-9)

-2x² x 4x= -8x³

-2x² x  -9=18x²

-3 x 4x= -12x

-3 x -9= 27

-8x³+18x²-12x+27

Answer:

-77 assuming you meant to write -2x^2+5x-8 instead of -2x^2+5-8

Step-by-step explanation:

You could multiply it out and see...

(-2x^2+5x-8)(4x-9)

(-2x^2)(4x-9)+(5x)(4x-9)+(-8)(4x-9)

-8x^3+18x^2+20x^2-45x-32x+72

-8x^3+38x^2-77x+72

Coefficient of x^3 is -8

Coefficient of x^2 is 38

Coefficient of x is -77

Constant term is 72
