4x(x^2-2x+5) Found 2 solutions by stanbon, jim_thompson5910:Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A.) use the distributive property to solve and create a binomial to set up the FOIL method
(x+a)(x+b)
= (x+a)x + (x+a)b
= xx + ax + bx + ab
Which is F--O--I--L
================================
B.) Solve with the FOIL method
could you break it down step by step?
= 4x(x^2-2x+5)
= 4x*x^2 -4x*2x + 4x*5
============================

You can put this solution on YOUR website! This problem does not involve FOILing, but involves distribution (you use FOIL when you have two binomials). So I would double check the problem.
Anyways, here's how you would simplify the problem.
