(3x^2a-4y^a z^3a)^2

OpenStudy (tennistar):

\[(3x ^{2}2a-4y ^{a}z ^{3}a)^{2}\] As I read correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (tennistar):

well that translates to \[(3x ^{2}2a-4y ^{a}z ^{3}a)(3x ^{2}2a-4y ^{a}z ^{3}a)\]

OpenStudy (tennistar):

Now use FOIL or First Outers Inners Lasts multiplying them

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I never really learned the foil thing

OpenStudy (tennistar):

Well Firsts means \[3x ^{2}2a \times 3x ^{2}2a\]

OpenStudy (tennistar):

now do you kind of get the idea?

OpenStudy (tennistar):

Multiply the beginnings, the first term of the equation and last term, the terms in the middle and the last terms
