Use FOIL to multiply:
\n" ); document.write( "(4x – 9)(3x – 5) \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "FOIL is an acronym used to help the student remember how to multiply expressions of the form (a+b)(c+d). It stands for:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "F=First
\n" ); document.write( "O=Outer
\n" ); document.write( "I=Inner
\n" ); document.write( "L=Last\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If we apply this to your problem, we get:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "First--------------4x*3x=12x^2
\n" ); document.write( "Outer---------------4x*(-5)=-20x
\n" ); document.write( "Inner---------------(-9)*3x=-27x
\n" ); document.write( "Last-------------------(-9)(-5)=45\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now if we add the terms up, we get:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "12x^2-47x+45\r
\n" ); document.write( "
