When multiplying a polynomial by a monomial, each term in the polynomial gets multiplied by the monomial. Calculate each term one at a time, then add the results to get the final answer. In this case, we start by multiplying 
. 
and 
, thus we get 
. For the second term of the polynomial, we multiply 
and 
, resulting in 
. Finally, we multiply 
and 
, resulting in 
. Adding the three terms that we just found, we come to the answer of 
.
