(2x - 3y)(4x - y) can you help me
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

<h2>(2x - 3y)(4x - y) = 8x² - 14xy + 3y²</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Use FOIL:  <em>(a + b)(c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd</em>

(2x - 3y)(4x - y) = (2x)(4x) + (2x)(-y) + (-3y)(4x) + (-3y)(-y)

= 8x² - 2xy - 12xy + 3y²

<em>combine like terms</em>

= 8x² + (-2xy - 12xy) + 3y² = 8x² - 14xy + 3y²
