or
Example Question #4821 : Algebra 1
Expand :
To expand , you must use the FOIL method to multiply the two expressions distributively. Utilizing the FOIL method gives you
or
.
Example Question #4822 : Algebra 1
Use FOIL to simplify the expression .
FOIL stands for "First, Outside, Inside, Last" and represents a quick way to multiply binomials.
We start with the "first" terms of the expression and multiply them together, yielding
.
Multiplying the "outside" terms gives us
and the inside gives us .
Finally, multiplying the "last" terms yields , or
.
Simple addition of these terms gives us the expression , and subtracting 2 gives us our final answer.

Expand:
To expand , you can use the FOIL method to multiply each term individually. This will give you
, or
.
Example Question #4823 : Algebra 1
Use the FOIL method to evaluate .
FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) refers to a method used to multiply binomials. As the name indicates, our first step is to multiply the first terms of each binomial together. This gives us , or
. Next, we multiply the "outside" terms together, yielding
or
, and do the same for the "inside" terms, which yield
. Finally, the product of the last terms in each binomial is
, which equals
. Our next step is adding these values together to get
. So, our final answer is
.
