12x^4 +18x^3-30x^212x4+18x330x2

Explanation:

Well, the idea is that you multiply through. The easy bit is to start with 2(3x^2)2(3x2)

2(3x^2)(2x^2+3x-5)2(3x2)(2x2+3x5)

=> (6x^2)(2x^2+3x-5)(6x2)(2x2+3x5)

Then you multiply (6x^2)(6x2) by every term in (2x^2+3x-5)(2x2+3x5)

=> 12x^4 +18x^3-30x^212x4+18x330x2
