\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%282x-3%29%283x%2B2%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%282x%29-3%29%28highlight%283x%29%2B2%29\" Multiply the First terms:\"%282%2Ax%29%2A%283%2Ax%29=6%2Ax%5E2\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28highlight%282x%29-3%29%283x%2Bhighlight%282%29%29\" Multiply the Outer terms:\"%282%2Ax%29%2A%282%29=4%2Ax\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%282x%2Bhighlight%28-3%29%29%28highlight%283x%29%2B2%29\" Multiply the Inner terms:\"%28-3%29%2A%283%2Ax%29=-9%2Ax\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%282x%2Bhighlight%28-3%29%29%283x%2Bhighlight%282%29%29\" Multiply the Last terms:\"%28-3%29%2A%282%29=-6\".\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: \"6%2Ax%5E2\", \"4%2Ax\", \"-9%2Ax\", \"-6\" \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"6%2Ax%5E2%2B4%2Ax-9%2Ax-6\" Now add every term listed above to make a single expression.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"6x%5E2-5x-6\" Now combine like terms.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So \"%282x-3%29%283x%2B2%29\" FOILs to \"6x%5E2-5x-6\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "In other words, \"%282x-3%29%283x%2B2%29=6x%5E2-5x-6\".
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
