Explanation:

Step1: Apply distributive property

Multiply \(-4x\) with each term inside the parentheses. So, \(-4x \times 2x^2 + (-4x) \times 3\)

Step2: Simplify each term

For the first term: \(-4x \times 2x^2 = -8x^{1 + 2} = -8x^3\) (using the rule \(a^m \times a^n = a^{m + n}\)). For the second term: \(-4x \times 3 = -12x\)

Step3: Combine the terms

Combine the simplified terms to get the final product: \(-8x^3 - 12x\)

Answer:

\(-8x^3 - 12x\)
