Algebra.Com's Answer #208804 by amnd(23) You can put this solution on YOUR website! FOIL would stand for:\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "F = firsts (multiply the first part of the two expressions) \n" ); document.write( "O = outers (multiply the ones on the \"outside\", i.e. the first and last) \n" ); document.write( "I = inners (the \"inside\" part; the second and third) \n" ); document.write( "L = lasts (the ones on the end of the two expressions)\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(3x +4)(2x-5)\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "4 and 2x would be the INNERS, which means the solution would be I [B] \n" ); document.write( " |
