"3 less than twice x" = 2x - 3.
"2 more than the quantity 3 times x" = 2 + 3x.
The product of these two things is (2x-3)*(2+3x).

3 less than twice x = 2x - 3
2 more than the quantity 3 times x = 2+3x
So their product will be,
(2x - 3) * (2 +3x) = 4x - 6 + 6xsq - 9x = 6x sq - 5x - 6

3 less than twice x
2x - 3
2 more than the quantity 3 times x
3x + 2
(2x - 3)(3x + 2)
or
6x^2 -5x - 6

2x - 3 + 2 + 3x this should be 5x - 1 after collecting like terms
