FOIL Method(Voice Thread)(CEP 413) Madera Schwary Fall 2011
Objectives • We will learn how to use the FOIL Method for multiplying polynomials together. • Will go over new vocabulary and review old vocab that relates to this topic. • Students will be able to successfully follow these steps by the end of the lesson.
Using the FOIL Method • F – First • O – Outside • I – Inside • L – Last We follow these operations when multiplying Polynomials.
(x+3)(x+2) • First – multiply the first terms (x and x) • Outside – multiply the terms on the outside (x and 2) • Inside – multiply the terms on the inside (3 and x) • Last – multiply the last terms (3 and 2) • (x + 3)(x + 2) = x2 • (x + 3)(x + 2) = 2x • (x + 3)(x + 2) = 3x • (x + 3)(x + 2) = 6
Now we have an equation that looks like this: x2+ 2x+ 3x+ 6 We add like terms: 2x+3x = 5x And finally we end up with the equation: x2+ 5x+ 6
