The FOIL Method Example 8

Topic

Quadratics

Description

In this example, the FOIL method is referred to as "First, Outside, Inside, Last" and is used to multiply two binomials. Analyzing these different representations of a function is important and provides relevant information about the quadratic expression that results. Understanding this method is crucial for working with quadratic expressions and equations. In this example one of the coefficients is greater than 1 and both binomials have negative terms.
