2. [tex](n^2 - 1)(n + 2) - n^2(n - 3)[/tex]

Answer :

Alright, let's simplify each expression step by step and then arrange them based on the coefficient of [tex]\(n^2\)[/tex].

1. Simplify the expression [tex]\(-5(n^3-n^2-1)+n(n^2-n)\)[/tex]:
[tex]\[ \begin{aligned} &-5(n^3 - n^2 - 1) + n(n^2 - n) \\ &= -5n^3 + 5n^2 + 5 + n^3 - n^2 \\ &= -4n^3 + 4n^2 + 5. \end{aligned} \][/tex]

2. Simplify the expression [tex]\((n^2-1)(n+2)-n^2(n-3)\)[/tex]:
[tex]\[ \begin{aligned} &(n^2 - 1)(n + 2) - n^2(n - 3) \\ &= (n^3 + 2n^2 - n - 2) - (n^3 - 3n^2) \\ &= n^3 + 2n^2 - n - 2 - n^3 + 3n^2 \\ &= 5n^2 - n - 2. \end{aligned} \][/tex]

3. Simplify the expression [tex]\(n^2(n-4) + 5n^3 - 6\)[/tex]:
[tex]\[ \begin{aligned} &n^2(n - 4) + 5n^3 - 6 \\ &= n^3 - 4n^2 + 5n^3 - 6 \\ &= 6n^3 - 4n^2 - 6. \end{aligned} \][/tex]

4. Simplify the expression [tex]\(2n(n^2-2n-1)+3n^2\)[/tex]:
[tex]\[ \begin{aligned} &2n(n^2 - 2n - 1) + 3n^2 \\ &= 2n^3 - 4n^2 - 2n + 3n^2 \\ &= 2n^3 - n^2 - 2n. \end{aligned} \][/tex]

Now let's arrange these simplified expressions in increasing order based on the coefficient of [tex]\(n^2\)[/tex].

- From [tex]\(-4n^3 + 4n^2 + 5\)[/tex], the coefficient of [tex]\(n^2\)[/tex] is [tex]\(4\)[/tex].
- From [tex]\(5n^2 - n - 2\)[/tex], the coefficient of [tex]\(n^2\)[/tex] is [tex]\(5\)[/tex].
- From [tex]\(6n^3 - 4n^2 - 6\)[/tex], the coefficient of [tex]\(n^2\)[/tex] is [tex]\(-4\)[/tex].
- From [tex]\(2n^3 - n^2 - 2n\)[/tex], the coefficient of [tex]\(n^2\)[/tex] is [tex]\(-1\)[/tex].

Arranging them in increasing order based on the coefficient of [tex]\(n^2\)[/tex]:
1. [tex]\(6n^3 - 4n^2 - 6\)[/tex] (coefficient [tex]\(-4\)[/tex])
2. [tex]\(2n^3 - n^2 - 2n\)[/tex] (coefficient [tex]\(-1\)[/tex])
3. [tex]\(-4n^3 + 4n^2 + 5\)[/tex] (coefficient [tex]\(4\)[/tex])
4. [tex]\(5n^2 - n - 2\)[/tex] (coefficient [tex]\(5\)[/tex])

So the final order of the expressions simplified and arranged is:
[tex]\[ 6n^3 - 4n^2 - 6, \quad 2n^3 - n^2 - 2n, \quad -4n^3 + 4n^2 + 5, \quad 5n^2 - n - 2. \][/tex]
