<span> FOIL is a mnemonic rule for multiplying binomial (that is, two-term) algebraic expressions. </span>
<span>FOIL abbreviates the sequence "First, Outside, Inside, Last"; it's a way of remembering that the product is the sum of the products of those four combinations of terms. </span>
<span>For instance, if we multiply the two expressions </span>
<span>(x + 1) (x + 2) </span>
<span>then the result is the sum of these four products: </span>
<span>x times x (the First terms of each expression) </span>
<span>x times 2 (the Outside pair of terms) </span>
<span>1 times x (the Inside pair of terms) </span>
<span>1 times 2 (the Last terms of each expression) </span>
<span>and so </span>
<span>(x + 1) (x + 2) = x^2 + 2x + 1x + 2 = x^2 + 3x + 2 </span>
<span>[where the ^ is the usual way we indicate exponents here in Answers, because they're hard to represent in an online text environment]. </span>
<span>Now, compare this to multiplying a pair of two-digit integers: </span>
<span>37 × 43 </span>
<span>= (30 × 40) + (30 × 3) + (7 × 40) + (7 × 3) </span>
<span>= 1200 + 90 + 280 + 21 </span>
<span>= 1591 </span>
<span>The reason the two processes resemble each other is that multiplication is multiplication; the difference in the ways we represent the factors doesn't make it a fundamentally different operation. </span>
Answer:
1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
-5 - (-7) = 2
5 - (-5) = 10
2/10 ÷2
slope = 1/5
Answer:
11800
Step-by-step explanation:
4.5%=0.045
0.045x10,000=450
450x4(quarterly)=1800
10,000+1800= 11800
