Answer

$3x^{3}-8x^{2}+13x-6$

Work Step by Step

Distribute: $(3x-2)(x^{2}-2x+3)=3x(x^{2}-2x+3)-2(x^{2}-2x+3)$ ... distribute $=3x^{3}-6x^{2}+9x-2x^{2}+4x-6$ ... gather like terms, simplify $=3x^{3}-8x^{2}+13x-6$ this is the standard form, with terms listed from the highest power of x to the lowest.
