Example Question #12 : How To Use Foil In The Distributive Property
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 
Multiplying the "outside" terms gives us 
and the inside gives us 
Finally, multiplying the "last" terms yields 
Simple addition of these terms gives us the expression
