Foil Method

Decent Essays
I choose to do the foil method. In school they taught me to do it another way but then one of my friends taught me the foil method, which I believe is the easiest way and easy to remember. It is used to multiply 2 binomials.

Example: (2x+1)(3x-2) F terms> 2x(3x)= 〖6x〗^2 O terms> 2x(-2)= -4x I terms> 1(3x)=3x L terms> 1(-2)= -2

So with that done just put them together
(2x+1(3x-2) =
〖6x〗^2-x-2
