A theater has (2x+1) rows of seats, with (x-3) seats in each row. how many seats are in the theater? A. 2x^2- 5x- 3
B. 2x^2+ 5x- 3
C. 2x^2- 7x+ 3
D. 2x^2- 7x- 3

(2x+1)(x-3)

y(x-3) let y = 2x+1

y*x+y(-3) distribute

xy - 3y

x( y ) - 3( y )

x( 2x+1 ) - 3( 2x+1) ... replace y with 2x+1

2x^2 + x - 6x - 3 distribute

2x^2 - 5x - 3
