Use the FOIL method to multiply the following binomials. Show your work for each step.

1. Multiply: (x + 3)(x + 5)

2. Multiply: (2x - 1)(x + 4)

3. Multiply: (3x + 2)(2x - 3)

For the expression (x + 2)(x + 7):

1. The 'First' terms are:  

2. The 'Outer' terms are:  

3. The 'Inner' terms are:  

4. The 'Last' terms are:  

1. Which of the following is the correct result of (x - 4)(x + 6)?

a

x² + 2x + 24

b

x² - 2x - 24

c

x² + 2x - 24

d

x² - 2x + 24

2. What is the product of (5x + 2)(x - 3)?

a

5x² - 13x - 6

b

5x² + 13x - 6

c

5x² - 17x - 6

d

5x² + 17x - 6
