To expand the expression (−2x − 6)(−x² − 5x − 2) into a polynomial in standard form, we need to multiply each term of the first expression by each term of the second expression and then combine like terms.

(−2x − 6)(−x² − 5x − 2)

Expanding the expression:

= (-2x)(-x²) + (-2x)(-5x) + (-2x)(-2) + ...
