Preform the operation indicated 3x^2 (2x^2-5x+1)

6x^4 - 15x^3 + 3x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

What we want to do here is to multiply what is outside the bracket with what is inside

That would be;

3x^2 (2x^2 - 5x + 1)

= 3x^2 (2x^2) - 5x (3x^2) + 1 (3x^2)

Opening the brackets, we have;

6x^4 - 15x^3 + 3x^2
