Question

Multiply the binomial
(2x+1)(3x-2)

Answer 1

Use FOIL or double distribute (Front, outer, inner, last) 6x^2-4x+3x-2= 6x^2-x-2

Answer 2

Multiply each of the terms in the first parentheses by the second parentheses and add like terms. This is known as the distribution method.

2x(3x - 2) + 1(3x - 2)

6x² - 4x + 3x - 2

6x² - x - 2
