Um I'm not too sure what you're asking but anyway. You have a binomial (x+2)(x-3), there's a a trick called FOIL to know the order in which you distribute. So the distributive property means you multiply each term in the first factor which each term in the second factor. FOIL means First Outer Inner Last. That's the order which you distribute w|dw:1408144022172:dw|
