Answer:
g(x) = - x² - x + 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
g(x) = (- x - 4)(x - 3)
Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is
- x(x - 3) - 4(x - 3) ← distribute both parenthesis
= - x² + 3x - 4x + 12 ← collect like terms
= - x² - x + 12 ← in standard form
