Answer

$n^3-5n^2+10n-12$.

Work Step by Step

The given expression is $=(n-3)(n^2-2n+4)$ Distribute $(n^2-2n+4)$ to each term of $(n-3)$. $=(n)(n^2-2n+4)-3(n^2-2n+4)$ Use distributive property. $=n(n^2)+n(-2n)+n(4)-3(n^2)-3(-2n)-3(4)$ Multiply. $=n^3-2n^2+4n-3n^2+6n-12$ Combine like terms. $=n^3-5n^2+10n-12$ Hence, the product is $n^3-5n^2+10n-12$.
