MULTIPLYING BINOMIALS

Solve the following problems using the distributive property.

x ( 3 + 7 ) =

( 2x + 3 ) x =

3x + 7x

10x

2x2 + 3x

OBJECTIVE

Today we will learn how to multiply binomials by using the FOIL method.

USING THE DISTRIBUTIVE PROPERTY

( x + 2 ) ( x + 5 ) = ( x + 2 ) (x) + ( x + 2 ) (5)

x2 + 2x + 5x + 10

x2 + 7x + 10

( x + 2 ) ( x + 5 )

EXAMPLES

( x + 4 ) ( x + 8 ) =

( x + 5 ) ( x – 6) =

x2 + 8x + 4x + 32

x2 − 6x + 5x − 30

x2 + 12x + 32

x2 − x − 30

PRACTICE

( x − 7 ) ( x − 4 ) =

( x + 10 ) ( x + 3 ) =

x2 + 3x + 10x + 30

x2 + 13x + 30

x2 − 4x − 7x + 28

x2 − 11x + 28

( 2x2 + 4 ) ( 3x − 5 ) =

( 3x2 − 6x) (4x + 2) =

EXAMPLES

6x3 − 10x2 + 12x− 20

12x3 + 6x2

− 24x2

− 12x

12x3 − 18x2 − 12x

( 4x2 + 2 ) ( 2x + 8 ) =

8x3 + 32x2 + 4x + 16

(3x2 − 7x ) ( x − 9 ) =

3x3 − 27x2 − 7x2 + 63x

3x3 −34x2 + 63x
