You can put this solution on YOUR website!
(1/4x^2 - 2/3)*(1/4x - 1/4)
\n" ); document.write( "FOIL
\n" ); document.write( "multiply the 1st two terms F
\n" ); document.write( "1/4x^2 * 1/4x = (1/16)x^3
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( "multiply the two outer terms O
\n" ); document.write( "1/4x^2 * - 1/4 = -(1/16)x^2
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( "multiply the two inner terms I
\n" ); document.write( "-2/3 * 1/4x = -(2/12)x
\n" ); document.write( ";
\n" ); document.write( "multiply the last two terms L
\n" ); document.write( "-2/3 * -1/4 = (2/12)
