First number = 23+x

Second number = 2(23+x)-18 = 46 +2x -18 = 2x +28

Now multiply each term by each term :

23 +x * 2x +28

23 * 2x + 23 * 28 + x *2x + x*28=

46x + 644 + 2x^2 + 28x =

Final answer = 2x^2 +74x +644

The answer is D.

Answer:

The product of two numbers is  [tex]P(x)=2x^2+74x+644[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that The first number is the sum of 23 and x,

First number = 23+x

The second number is 18 less than two times the first number.

Second Number = [tex]2(23+x)-18[/tex]

The product of two numbers :  [tex](23+x)(2(23+x)-18)[/tex]

                                                    [tex](23+x)(46+2x-18)[/tex]

                                                    [tex](23+x)(28+2x)[/tex]

                                                    [tex]2x^2+74x+644[/tex]

Let P(x) denotes the product

So, The product of two numbers is  [tex]P(x)=2x^2+74x+644[/tex]

Hence Option D is true .

The product of two numbers is  [tex]P(x)=2x^2+74x+644[/tex]
