Solve (x-2a)(x-2a+3)

Evaluate

(x - 2 a) (x - 2 a + 3)

Apply the distributive property

x \times x - x \times 2 a + x \times 3 - 2 a x - (- 2 a \times 2 a) - 2 a \times 3

Multiply the terms

x^{2} - x \times 2 a + x \times 3 - 2 a x - (- 2 a \times 2 a) - 2 a \times 3

Use the commutative property to reorder the terms

x^{2} - 2 x a + x \times 3 - 2 a x - (- 2 a \times 2 a) - 2 a \times 3

Use the commutative property to reorder the terms

x^{2} - 2 x a + 3 x - 2 a x - (- 2 a \times 2 a) - 2 a \times 3

Multiply the terms

More Steps

x^{2} - 2 x a + 3 x - 2 a x - (- 4 a^{2}) - 2 a \times 3

Multiply the numbers

x^{2} - 2 x a + 3 x - 2 a x - (- 4 a^{2}) - 6 a

If a negative sign or a subtraction symbol appears outside parentheses, remove the parentheses and change the sign of every term within the parentheses

x^{2} - 2 x a + 3 x - 2 a x + 4 a^{2} - 6 a
