What is the standard form of g (x) = (-x-4) (x-3)

g (x) = - x² - x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

g (x) = ( - x - 4) (x - 3)

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

- x (x - 3) - 4 (x - 3) ← distribute both parenthesis

= - x² + 3x - 4x + 12 ← collect like terms

= - x² - x + 12 ← in standard form
