I will mark brainliest if your answer is correct.

Multiply.

-2x (6x^4-7x^2+x-5)

Express the answer in standard form.

There are two parts to this problem we need to acknowledge.

First, we need to multiply using the distributive property, or FOIL.

-2x (6x^4 - 7x^2 + x - 5)

Multiply - 2x by each term.

-12x^5 + 14x^3 - 2x^2 + 10x

Now, fortunately, the expression is already in standard form.

Standard form of a polynomial is where the term of the largest degree is listed first, and as the polynomial continues from left to right, the degree decreases per term.

The highest degree is 5, and the expression is already listed in standard form as the degrees go: 5, 3, 2, 1.
