Identify terms: Identify the terms to be multiplied.We have two terms: −6r2 and 3r. We need to multiply these terms together.
Apply multiplication property: Apply the multiplication property of exponents.When multiplying terms with the same base, we add the exponents. The coefficient −6 is multiplied by 3.Calculation: (−6×3)×(r2×r1)=−18×r(2+1)
Simplify expression: Simplify the expression.We add the exponents for r and multiply the coefficients.Calculation: −18×r(2+1)=−18×r3
