Hello tasha try yourself here and i will help you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i just don't get it

OpenStudy (koikkara):

Don't worry if u don't know... here what you got to do is multiply terms seperately, Step 1: Multiply 2x(6x)=. Step 2: Multiply 2x(-7)= Step 3: Multiply -1(6x)= Step 4: Multiply (-1)(-7)=

@millie2305 Looks like you can help your friend....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea i'm here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i only got 5 questions to do on this test

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and i need help

OpenStudy (koikkara):

@tasha378 i understand, if u learn it will help you score a 100 alwayz

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes but first answer the multiplications @Koikkara put for you you have to distribute

OpenStudy (anonymous):

are you done @tasha378 ?

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

Tasha...do you understand what you have to multiply ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i just don't know how to set it up and find the answer

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

it is done this way... FOIL -- first,outside,inside,last (2x - 1)(6x - 7) F -- multiply first terms in each set .... 2x * 6x = 12x^2 O -- multiply outside terms in each set...2x * -7 = -14x I -- multiply inside terms in each set....-1 * 6x = -6x L -- multiply last terms in each set...- 1 * -7 = 7 now put it all together.. 12x^2 - 14x - 6x + 7 now combine like terms 12x^2 - 20x + 7 is that better ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yea

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

it is basically the same as what @Koikkara did....I just wanted you to see how he got the numbers to multiply
