\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x%2B3%29%282x-7%29\" Start with the given expression.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now let's FOIL the expression.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Remember, when you FOIL an expression, you follow this procedure:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28highlight%28x%29%2B3%29%28highlight%282x%29-7%29\" Multiply the First terms:\"%28x%29%2A%282%2Ax%29=2%2Ax%5E2\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28highlight%28x%29%2B3%29%282x%2Bhighlight%28-7%29%29\" Multiply the Outer terms:\"%28x%29%2A%28-7%29=-7%2Ax\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x%2Bhighlight%283%29%29%28highlight%282x%29-7%29\" Multiply the Inner terms:\"%283%29%2A%282%2Ax%29=6%2Ax\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x%2Bhighlight%283%29%29%282x%2Bhighlight%28-7%29%29\" Multiply the Last terms:\"%283%29%2A%28-7%29=-21\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So we have the terms: \"2%2Ax%5E2\", \"-7%2Ax\", \"6%2Ax\", \"-21\" \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"2%2Ax%5E2-7%2Ax%2B6%2Ax-21\" Now add every term listed above to make a single expression.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"2%2Ax%5E2-x-21\" Now combine like terms.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So \"%28x%2B3%29%282x-7%29\" FOILs to \"2%2Ax%5E2-x-21\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "In other words, \"%28x%2B3%29%282x-7%29=2%2Ax%5E2-x-21\".\r
