Simplify the expression.
(–3y + 2) (y + 3)
A. –3y2 – 7y + 6
B. 3y2 – 11y + 6
C. 3y2 – 7y – 6
D. 3y2 + 11y + 6
Using the distributive property, we can multiply the two terms in the parentheses with each other:
(–3y + 2) (y + 3) = –3y^2 – 9y + 2y + 6
Simplifying, we combine like terms:
–3y^2 – 7y + 6
Therefore, the answer is A. –3y2 – 7y + 6.
