To expand two terms such as these, we can use the method called FOIL (stands for First, Outer, Inner, Last). Here is what I mean:
We have two terms: (x - 2)(x - 1)
We should first multiply the First two terms of each term in order to complete the F stage:
(x)*(x) =

So then, we take the two outer terms and multiply them together to complete the O stage:
(x)*(-1) = -x
So far we have two things that we have calculated; at the end of the FOIL process we will have four.
To keep going with the FOIL, we now multiply the two inner terms to complete the I stage:
(-2)*(x) = -2x
Last but not least, we need to complete the L stage - so we multiply the two last terms of each term:
(-2)*(-1) = 2
Now that we have our four terms, let us add them together and combine like terms:

Since -x and -2x both have the x portion in common and they are added together, we can add them to create one single term:
-x + (-2x) = -3x
So now that we have our terms completed, we can combine into one polynomial equation:

or
There are 72 different ways the director can fill the positions.
(1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8) x 2
You multiply it by 2 because there are going to be 4 other people who will not have a position, and 8/4 is 2.

Answer:
x = 18
m∠HCB = 36
Step-by-step explanation:
The measure of angle FBC is 8x and the measure of angle HCB is 2x. If you add the measures of both angles it will equal to 180 degrees. This can be represented in an equation:
8x + 2x = 180
10x = 180
Divide both sides of the equation by 10 to isolate the x:
10x/10 = 180/10
x = 18
Now that we know the value of x, we can find the measure of angle HCB:
2x
2(18)
36
The measure of angle HCB is 36.
I hope this helps :)
