i think it is @Sammii09

OpenStudy (music0203):

@kidrah69 when i clicked on your link, it took me to a blank page with adds.

OpenStudy (kidrah69):

That shouldnt have done that :/ ok lets just solve it 2n^2 x 2n?

OpenStudy (music0203):

(2n^2+5n+4)(2n-4)

OpenStudy (kidrah69):

2n^2 x 2n?

OpenStudy (kidrah69):

answer that we are foiling it out :)

OpenStudy (kidrah69):

Do you know what foil is?

OpenStudy (music0203):

fist outer inner last

OpenStudy (music0203):

but i always have trouble doing it.

OpenStudy (kidrah69):

Well its just like distributing :) in this case you will multiply 2n^2 to everything on the next set of parentheses :)

OpenStudy (kidrah69):

Try it out

OpenStudy (music0203):

but it is in the same parentheses as most the other numbers...

OpenStudy (kidrah69):

ok i will ask you will answer:P what is 2n^2 x 2n?

OpenStudy (music0203):

4n^2?

OpenStudy (kidrah69):

Careful we have another n right so it will be 4n^3

OpenStudy (music0203):

okay

OpenStudy (kidrah69):

Next 2n^2 x -4 =?

OpenStudy (music0203):

-8^2??

OpenStudy (kidrah69):

you left the n out :C -8n^2 now we do the next number 5n x 2n = ?

OpenStudy (music0203):

10n?

OpenStudy (kidrah69):

We have 2 ns so 10n^2

OpenStudy (kidrah69):

next 5n x -4 =?

OpenStudy (music0203):

-20n?

OpenStudy (kidrah69):

yep =) 4 x 2n =?

OpenStudy (music0203):

8n?

OpenStudy (kidrah69):

-4 x 4= ?

OpenStudy (music0203):

-16??

OpenStudy (kidrah69):

Good. \[4n^3-8n^2+ 10n^2-20n+8n -16 \] combine all of the like terms

OpenStudy (music0203):

4n^3-46^2-16??

OpenStudy (music0203):

i dont think i did that right...

OpenStudy (kidrah69):

not quite :) 4n^3 looks good -46^2 no...thats wrong what is 10-20?

OpenStudy (kidrah69):

Here this is what you should have gotten http://prntscr.com/75x6gm
