So, it's just foiling sort of
OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):
when you use FOIL, you are essentially distributing each term of a polynomial to another
OpenStudy (godlovesme):
does it need to have like variables?
OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):
oh oh oh wait, I thought that was a multiplication sign. Nope this is even easier
OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):
\[(7x2y+6xy2−3xy)−(4x2y−2xy2+5xy)\] Correct?

yes
OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):
ok so can you find the like terms? The terms with the exact same variable combinations?
OpenStudy (godlovesme):
first we distribute the -ve sign?
OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):
yes you can
OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):
please do

hang on i'm solving :)
OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):
okee dokey
OpenStudy (fibonaccichick666):
and just because this bothered me, here we go \[(7x^2y+6xy^2−3xy)−(4x^2y−2xy^2+5xy)\]
OpenStudy (godlovesme):
\[(3x^2y+8xy^2-8xy)\]
:D
