(x^(2)-4)(x^(2)-x-6)
Multiply each term in the first polynomial by each term in the second polynomial.
(x^(2)*x^(2)+x^(2)*-x+x^(2)*-6-4*x^(2)-4*-x-4*-6)
Multiply each term in the first polynomial by each term in the second polynomial.
(x^(4)-x^(3)-10x^(2)+4x+24)
Remove the parentheses around the expression x^(4)-x^(3)-10x^(2)+4x+24.
x^(4)-x^(3)-10x^(2)+4x+24
