To simplify the expression 3x(x-2)-5x(x+3), we can use the distributive property.
First, let's expand the expression:
3x(x-2) = 3x * x - 3x * 2 = 3x^2 - 6x
-5x(x+3) = -5x * x - 5x * 3 = -5x^2 - 15x
Now, we can combine the like terms:
(3x^2 - 6x) - (5x^2 + 15x) = 3x^2 - 6x - 5x^2 - 15x
To combine the like terms, we add or subtract the coefficients of the same degree variables:
(3x^2 - 5x^2) + (-6x - 15x) = -2x^2 - 21x
Therefore, the simplified expression is -2x^2 - 21x.
