for this question first i identified (r+1)^2 = r^2+2r+1

i subbed in r+1 into r which gave me f(r+1)= 2r^3 + 8r^2 + 13r + 6 

then subtracted the expanded version of f(r) which is 2r^3 + 3r^2 + r

which at the end gave me 5r^2 + 12r + 6

i think the 5 in my answer should be 6 

spot my mistake please.

You are correct in your assumption.....

instead of  2 r^3 + 8r^2 + 13 r + 6      I get

                  2 r^3 + 9r^2 + 13r + 6  .......     So when you were expanding, you got something a little befuzzled.....look at it again....G'Luck ! cheeky
