The answer is $6 x^{2} + x - 2$ $6x^2+x-2$ .

Explanation:

Use the distributive property (aka FOIL):

First: $3 x \times 2 x = 6 x^{2}$ $3x xx 2x=6x^2$
Inner: $3 x \times - 1 = - 3 x$ $3x xx -1=-3x$
Outer: $2 \times 2 x = 4 x$ $2xx2x=4x$
Last: $2 \times - 1 = - 2$ $2xx-1=-2$

Add all four up:

$6 x^{2} - 3 x + 4 x - 2$ $6x^2 -3x+4x -2$
$6 x^{2} + x - 2$ $color(red)(6x^2+x-2)$
