    The answer to your question is Forgot the sign and the exponent is 6.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First equation (3x²) (-2x⁴)

    Associative property (3) (-2) (x²x⁴)

    Simplify (-6) (x²⁺⁴)

    Correct answer - 6x⁶

    The error was that forgot the negative sign and in a multiplication, the exponents must be added not multiply.
