Multiply
Do you remember FOIL? You multiply the First, Outer, Inner, and Last ones together and add them up.
okay
Tell me whatcha get and I'll help you out if you need it. It kinda gets confusing with those square roots, I know!
@Kainui 6 sqrt5 - 9 sqrt5 + 2 sqrt5 - 2 thats what i got after i did F.O.I.L <---- i think thats wrong
Alright, so first off we can take it one at a time. First we multiply \[(3\sqrt{5})*(2\sqrt{5})\] which will give us \[(3*2*\sqrt{5}*\sqrt{5})\] Now we can see that 3*2 is 6, and we see that \[\sqrt{5}*\sqrt{5}=\sqrt{5}^2=5\] right? So they just cancel each other out! So for our first term the answer is: \[6*5=30\]
With me so far? Or should I keep going?
keep going
please
Try to do the last two terms and tell me what you do.
