Question

How do you distribute this (x+5)(x+10)

Answer 1

Answer

x²+15x+50

Step-by-step explanation:

You start with the left side of the equation. Multiply the right binomial by x

{ x (x) + x(10) }  = x² + 10x

Then multiply the right side of the equation by 5

{  5 (x) + 5 (10)  =  5x + 50

Add both the (x² + 10x) and the (5x+50)

This will give you an answer of x²+15x+50

Answer 2

Answer: x^2+10x+5x+50    =    x^2+15x+50

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, use something called FOIL. It stands for first, outer, inner, last. Basically multiply the first x, by the first x in the second parenthesis. Then multiply that x by the outer x in the second parenthesis. After that, multiply the 5 by the inner x. Then the five by the ten.
