To multiply a binomial by a binomial, you can apply the Distributive Property more than once:

(x + 3)(x + 2) = x(x + 2) + 3(x + 2) Distribute x and 3.

Distribute x and 3 again.

Multiply.

Combine like terms.

= x(x + 2) + 3(x + 2)

= x(x) + x(2) + 3(x) + 3(2)

= x2 + 2x + 3x + 6

= x2 + 5x + 6

Holt Algebra 1


Another method for multiplying binomials is called the FOIL method.

4. Multiply the Last terms. (x + 3)(x + 2) 3 2 = 6

3. Multiply the Inner terms. (x + 3)(x + 2) 3 x = 3x

2. Multiply the Outer terms. (x + 3)(x + 2) x 2 = 2x

To multiply polynomials with more than two terms, you can use the Distributive Property several times. Multiply (5x + 3) by (2x2 + 10x – 6):

(5x + 3)(2x2 + 10x – 6) = 5x(2x2 + 10x – 6) + 3(2x2 + 10x – 6)

= 5x(2x2 + 10x – 6) + 3(2x2 + 10x – 6)

= 5x(2x2) + 5x(10x) + 5x(–6) + 3(2x2) + 3(10x) + 3(–6)

= 10x3 + 50x2 – 30x + 6x2 + 30x – 18

= 10x3 + 56x2 – 18

You can also use a rectangle model to multiply polynomials with more than two terms. This is similar to finding the area of a rectangle with length (2x2 + 10x – 6) and width (5x + 3):

2x2 +10x –6

10x3 50x2 –30x

30x6x2 –18

5x

+3

Write the product of the monomials in each row and column:

To find the product, add all of the terms inside the rectangle by combining like terms and simplifying if necessary. 10x3 + 6x2 + 50x2 + 30x – 30x – 18

10x3 + 56x2 – 18

Another method that can be used to multiply polynomials with more than two terms is the vertical method. This is similar to methods used to multiply whole numbers.

2x2 + 10x – 6

5x + 36x2 + 30x – 18

+ 10x3 + 50x2 – 30x 10x3 + 56x2 + 0x – 18

10x3 + 56x2 + – 18

Multiply each term in the top polynomial by 3.
