distributive property is a(b+c) = ab + ac
for example: 3(4x+2) = 3(4x) + 3(2) = 12x + 6
so 6(2x+4) = ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so it would be 12x+4
OpenStudy (anonymous):
12x+24
jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):
correct :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
which one the 12x+4 or the 12x+24

12x+24
because 6(2x+4) = 6(2x) + 6(4) = 12x + 24

Select the product of (9x - 4)(4x + 8)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i kno product means multiply

This would be the foil method
FOIL = First Outer Inter Last
for example:
(3x-2)(2x+1) = (3x)(2x)+(3x)(1)+(-2)(2x)+(-2)(1) = 6x² + 3x - 4x - 2
= 6x² - x - 2
