Step 1: First we have to write polynomials in descending order.
P(x)Q(x)=−17x+18=12x+26In this example we are multiplying two binomials so FOIL method can be used.
(−17x+18)⋅(12x+26)=FIRST(−17x)⋅12x+OUTER(−17x)⋅26+INNER18⋅12x+LAST18⋅26==−204x2+(−442x)+216x+468==−204x2+(−442x)+216x+468==−204x2−226x+468;
