(2x-3y)(x+4y)
Use FOIL or distributive property
Using distributive property:
+2x (x+4y) - 3y (x+4y)
2 x^2 + 8 x y - 3 x y - 12 y^2
= 2 x^2 + 5 x y - 12 y^2 ft^2
Use FOIL or distributive property
Using distributive property:
+2x (x+4y) - 3y (x+4y)
2 x^2 + 8 x y - 3 x y - 12 y^2
= 2 x^2 + 5 x y - 12 y^2 ft^2
