multiply (2x - 3) (x + 4)

To find the product of (2x - 3) and (x + 4), you can use the distributive property:

(2x - 3) (x + 4) = 2x(x) + 2x(4) - 3(x) - 3(4)

Simplifying this expression, we get:

2x^2 + 8x - 3x - 12

Now, combine like terms:

2x^2 + 5x - 12

Therefore, the product of (2x - 3) and (x + 4) is 2x^2 + 5x - 12.
