Idk i need the points and how is this for math
Answer:
If there are an even number (0, 2, 4, ...) of negative factors to multiply, the product is positive. If there are an odd number (1, 3, 5, ...) of negative factors, the product is negative.
Step-by-step explanation:
A negative balance of money could represent debt or money owed.
(x+4)²= (x+4)×(x+4)
Use the FOIL method to simplify
F=First (multiply the first number of each expression)
O=Outside (multiply the outside edges of each expression)
I= Inside (multiply the inside edges of each expression)
L= Last (multiply the last number of each expression)
x times x= x²
x times 4= 4x
4 times x= 4x
4 times 4= 16
Add them together, we have: x²+4x+4x+16
We can simplify this by adding like terms
4x+4x=8x
Final expression= x² + 8x + 16
