Example Question #4861 : Algebra 1

Expand:

Possible Answers:

None of the other answers

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To expand the equation, you can use the FOIL method, which distributively multiplies each individual term within both binomials. This gives you 

or 

Example Question #4862 : Algebra 1

Expand: 

Possible Answers:

None of these answers

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To multiply the binomials, you can utilize the FOIL method to multiply each term individually, which would give you 

or

or 

.

Example Question #51 : Distributive Property

Multiply the following expression:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Start by using FOIL to multiply the two binomials:

Then, combine the middle terms of the trinomial in parentheses:

Finally, use the distributive property to multiply each term of the trinomial by :

Example Question #2 : Foil

Example Question #4865 : Algebra 1

FOIL .

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

(2x + 3)(x + 5)

First: 2x multiplied by x = 2x²

Outer: 2x multiplied by 5 = 10x

Inner: 3 multiplied by x = 3x

Lasts: 3 multiplied by 5 = 15

Put it all together: 2x² + 10x + 3x + 15

Simplify: 2x² + 13x + 15

Example Question #4866 : Algebra 1

If the roots of a function are , what does the function look like in  format?

Possible Answers:

No equation of this form is possible.

Correct answer:

Explanation:

This is a FOIL problem. First, we must set up the problem in a form we can use to create the function. To do this we take the opposite sign of each of the numbers and place them in this format: .

Now we can FOIL.

First:

Outside:

Inside:

Last:

Then add them together to get .

Combine like terms to find the answer, which is .

Example Question #4867 : Algebra 1

Expand:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Use the FOIL (First Outer Inner Last) method:

F: 

O: 

I: 

L: 

Put the terms together:

Simplify by combining like terms:

Example Question #4868 : Algebra 1

Expand and then simplify:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Use the FOIL (First Outer Inner Last) method.

To start, focus on the first terms and multiply them together:

Next, multiply the last terms,  and , to get .

Finally, multiply the outside and inside terms, which should give you  and .

Combine the like terms:

This gives you the final answer, .

If instead your answer was , you simply forgot to subtract  at the end. If you got a different answer choice, you probably made a mistake with the signs when multiplying out the FOIL.
