$\"%28x-3%29%5E2\"$
\n" ); document.write( "To multiply this expand the expression. As the problem is asking you to square:
\n" ); document.write( "(x-3)*(x-3)
\n" ); document.write( "Now use the FOIL method to find the product.
\n" ); document.write( "FOIL is an acronym for First, Outer, Inner, Last
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply the first term of each expression
\n" ); document.write( "x * x = x^2
\n" ); document.write( "Next, multiply the two outer terms:
\n" ); document.write( "x * -3 = -3x
\n" ); document.write( "Then multiply the inner terms:
\n" ); document.write( "x * -3 = -3x
\n" ); document.write( "Finally, the last terms
\n" ); document.write( "-3 * -3 = 9\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Add all of terms together:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%5E2+%2B+%28-3x%29+%2B+%28-3x%29+%2B9\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Combine like terms:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x%5E2+-+6x+%2B+9\"$
\n" ); document.write( "This is your answer \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
