Question 25299: I'm sorry if this is the wrong topic. I'm not sure what this is listed as. The directions say to "find the missing term" one of the problems is _?_ + 12 I know how they got the first and last numbers, I just don't know what to do to find the middle term. The book says that the answer is 22x. Can you tell me how they got that? Thanks.

Do you know the FOIL Method?
(2x+6)(3x+2)
First:
Outer:
Inner:
Last :
Adding all the terms we get

which means your missing term is 22x
