Week 8- Multiplying two Binomials

This week week we started a new chapter; Polynomials. Polynomials are monomial or a sum or difference of monomials, they consist of terms normally separated by + or – signs. The hardest part about polynomials is probably remembering to combine like terms, like terms are terms that share the same exponents, and same variables. Down below I have showed you some examples of like terms, and in the photo you can see them in an equation.

Ex. 30a^24a^2 this would come out to be 26a^2

When multiplying Binomials you use F(first term in each bracket) O(outside terms) I(inside terms) L(last term in each bracket)
