When multiplying a polynomial by a monomial, each term in the polynomial gets multiplied by the monomial. Calculate each term one at a time, then add the results to get the final answer. In this case, we start by multiplying.and, thus we get. For the second term of the polynomial, we multiplyand, resulting in. Finally, we multiplyand, resulting in. Adding the three terms that we just found, we come to the answer of.
