Solve and simplify. (7x+3y-4)(x+4)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do the FOIL method

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(7x)(x)+(7x)(4)+(3y)(x)+(3y)(4)-(4x)-16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then the answer is 7x^2+24x+3xy+12y-16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You're supposed to multiply the two parentheses

OpenStudy (anonymous):

basically.. but u have to make sure to multiply each term

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then that would just be the answer? What you posted as the simplified terms?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

unless the question asks you to solve for y or x

OpenStudy (anonymous):
