Answer:

Explanation:

First, Outside, Inside, and Last

The FOIL method is a mnemonic device used to multiply binomials123. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, and Last, referring to the order of multiplying terms. You multiply first terms, then outside terms, then inside terms, then last terms, and then combine like terms for your answer1. This method only works for products of binomials2.
