FOIL
Let’s use a random equation
(3x-7)(6x+2)
the F stands for “first”... the 3x is first in its parenthesis. The 6x is the first in its parenthesis. So multiply those. You get 18x^2
The O stand for “outer” the 3x and 2 are the outer. They equal 6x.
the I stand for “inner”. -7 and 6x are the inner parts of the equation. They equal -42x
The L stand for last. The last are -7 and 2. They equal-14.
Put it all together
18x^2+6x-42x-14
18x^2-36x-14

Geometry Question: Image is provided below.
erik [133]
We know that the angle above 10x + 54 must be 8x because of Alternate angles. And we also know that angles in a straight line add up to 180. So we can infer that 10x + 54 + 8x = 180
We can simplify that into 18x + 54 = 180
Now we take away 54 from both sides to get 18x = 126
Now divide both sides by 18 and we get
x = 7.
Now that we know that x = 7 we know that the 10x + 54 angle is equal to 124 by substituting the value of x in. We also know that 11y + 14 must equal to 124 because of vertically opposite angles. So we have 11y + 14 = 124.

Take away 14 from both sides; 11y = 110
Now divide both sides by 11 and we get
y = 10

So x = 7 and y = 10
I hope that you understood all of my steps and if this did help you a Brainliest would be very appreciated :)
