Question

Help please

Answer 1

Multiply out (x+5)(x+6) and then multiply the result by -1. Show your work, please.
Use the so-called "foil" method to multiply these two binomials.

Answer 2

Well x^2

Answer 3

(-x-6)(x+5)

Answer 9

@mathmale ?

Answer 10

Earlier I asked you to multiply out (x+6)(x+5). Again: Please perform this multiplication. Use the Distributive Property of Multiplication (or the so-called FOIL Method).

Answer 11

x^2 +11?

Answer 12

@mathmale

Answer 13

Looks as tho you added 5 and 6 to get 11. No. That's addition. This problem invovles multiplication.

Multiply (x+5) by x, please. Then, multiply (x+5) by 5. Now add all the resulting terms together. This is an application of the Distributive Property of Multiplication.

Answer 14

X^2+25?

Answer 15

Hate to say this, but I think you're relying on guesswork instead of understanding.

Please multiply out x(x+5). This product is not x^2+25. Try again.
This is the Distributive Property of Mult. Look that up if you're unsure of what that's all about.

Answer 16

OKay look, X*X is X^2 and then if I multiply X*5 I get x

Answer 17

i get 5x*

Answer 18

x*x is indeed x^2.

Now you're right. 5x is correct. Better.

Next, multiply (x+6) by 5.

Answer 19

5x+30?

Answer 20

Yes. Now add together all four of the terms you've found; x^2, 5x, 6x, 30.

What do you get?

Answer 21

X^2+11x+30

Answer 22

Yes. So much better. You were using the Distributive Property of Multiplication here.
Now multiply all 3 of those terms by -1.

Your result?

Answer 23

-x^2+-11x-30

Answer 24

Because all of the values become negative righT>

Answer 25

Omit that '+' sign.

Answer 26

Yes, all of the 3 terms become negative because of your multiplication of them by -1.

Answer 27

-x^2-11x-30

Answer 28

Great. That's it.
