Combine like-terms in all sets of parentheses and just FOIL it:

[4x - 9][5x + 3]

F - Multiply the first terms in each set of parentheses FARTHEST TO THE LEFT

O - Multiply the first term in the first set of parentheses FARTHEST TO THE LEFT by the last term in the second set of parentheses FARTHEST TO THE RIGHT

I - Multiply the last term in the first set of parentheses FARTHEST TO THE RIGHT by the first term in the second set of parentheses FARTHEST TO THE LEFT

L - Multiply the last terms in each set of parentheses FARTHEST TO THE RIGHT

I am joyous to assist you anytime.
