in your own words explain in detail why it xis the case that if two fractions have the same number, the fraction with the smaller denominator is greater

(2x)(x^2)+(2x)(x)+(2x)(-2)+(3)(x^2)+(3)(x)+(3)(-2)

Simplifying

(2x)(x2) + (2x)(x) + (2x)(-2) + (3)(x2) + (3)(x) + (3)(-2)

Remove parenthesis around (2x)

2x(x2) + (2x)(x) + (2x)(-2) + (3)(x2) + (3)(x) + (3)(-2)

Multiply x * x2

2x3 + (2x)(x) + (2x)(-2) + (3)(x2) + (3)(x) + (3)(-2)

Remove parenthesis around (2x)

2x3 + 2x(x) + (2x)(-2) + (3)(x2) + (3)(x) + (3)(-2)

Multiply x * x

2x3 + 2x2 + (2x)(-2) + (3)(x2) + (3)(x) + (3)(-2)

Remove parenthesis around (2x)

2x3 + 2x2 + 2x(-2) + (3)(x2) + (3)(x) + (3)(-2)

Reorder the terms for easier multiplication:

2x3 + 2x2 + 2 * -2x + (3)(x2) + (3)(x) + (3)(-2)

Multiply 2 * -2

2x3 + 2x2 + -4x + (3)(x2) + (3)(x) + (3)(-2)

Multiply 3 * -2

2x3 + 2x2 + -4x + 3x2 + 3x + -6

Reorder the terms:

-6 + -4x + 3x + 2x2 + 3x2 + 2x3

Combine like terms: -4x + 3x = -1x

-6 + -1x + 2x2 + 3x2 + 2x3

Combine like terms: 2x2 + 3x2 = 5x2

-6 + -1x + 5x2 + 2x3
