Find the product of two binomials that differ only in sign Once again we have used the commutative and associative properties to rewrite the problem. Multiplying of Polynomials and Special Products You have already had some experience in multiplying polynomials. In Section 5.1 we stated the product rule for exponents and used that rule to find the product of two monomials. Let s review briefly. Multiplying Monomials Multiply 3x 2 y and 2x 3 y 5. Write To Find the Product of Monomials Step 1 Step 2 Multiply the coefficients. Use the product rule for exponents to combine the variables: CHECK YOURSELF 1 (3x 2 y)(2x 3 y 5 ) Multiply the coefficients. 6x 5 y 6 (a) (5a 2 b)(3a 2 b 4 ) (b) ( 3xy)(4x 3 y 5 ) ax m bx n abx m n Let s look at an example in which we multiply two monomials. (3 2)(x 2 x 3 )(y y 5 ) Add the exponents.

2 Section 5.4 Multiplying of Polynomials and Special Products 363 You might want to review Section 0.5 before going on. Our next task is to find the product of a monomial and a polynomial. Here we use the distributive property, which we introduced in Section 0.5. That property leads us to the following rule for multiplication. To Multiply a Polynomial by a Monomial Distributive property: a(b c) ab ac Use the distributive property to multiply each term of the polynomial by the monomial and simplify the result. E x a m p l e 2 Multiplying a Monomial and a Binomial Note: With practice you will do this step mentally. (a) Multiply 2x 3 by x. Write x(2x 3) x 2x x 3 2x 2 3x (b) Multiply 2a 3 4a by 3a 2. Write Multiply x by 2x and then by 3, the terms of the polynomial. That is, distribute the multiplication over the sum. CHECK YOURSELF 2 (a) 2y(y 2 3y) (b) 3w 2 (2w 3 5w) 3a 2 (2a 3 4a) 3a 2 2a 3 3a 2 4a 6a 5 12a 3 The patterns of Example 2 extend to any number of terms. E x a m p l e 3 Multiplying a Monomial and a Polynomial Multiply the following. (a) 3x(4x 3 5x 2 2) 3x 4x 3 3x 5x 2 3x 2 12x 4 15x 3 6x

3 364 Chapter 5 Polynomials Again we have shown all the steps of the process. With practice you can write the product directly, and you should try to do so. (b) 5c(4c 2 8c) ( 5c)(4c 2 ) ( 5c)(8c) 20c 3 40c 2 (c) 3c 2 d 2 (7cd 2 5c 2 d 3 ) 3c 2 d 2 7cd 2 (3c 2 d 2 )(5c 2 d 3 ) 21c 3 d 4 15c 4 d 5 CHECK YOURSELF 3 (a) 3(5a 2 2a 7) (b) 4x 2 (8x 3 6) (c) 5m(8m 2 5m) (d) 9a 2 b(3a 3 b 6a 2 b 4 ) E x a m p l e 4 Multiplying Binomials (a) Multiply x 2 by x 3. We can think of x 2 as a single quantity and apply the distributive property. Note that this ensures that each term, x and 2, of the first binomial is multiplied by each term, x and 3, of the second binomial. (x 2)(x 3) (x 2)x (x 2)3 x x 2 x x x 2 2x 3x 6 x 2 5x 6 Multiply x 2 by x and then by 3. (b) Multiply a 3 by a 4. (a 3)(a 4) (Think of a 3 as a single quantity and distribute.) (a 3)a (a 3)(4) a a 3 a [(a 4) (3 4)] a 2 3a (4a 12) Note that the parentheses are needed here because a minus sign precedes the binomial. CHECK YOURSELF 4 (a) (x 4)(x 5) (b) (y 5)(y 6)

4 Section 5.4 Multiplying of Polynomials and Special Products 365 Fortunately, there is a pattern to this kind of multiplication that allows you to write the product of the two binomials directly without going through all these steps. We call it the FOIL method of multiplying. The reason for this name will be clear as we look at the process in more detail. To multiply (x 2)(x 3): Remember this by F! Remember this by O! Remember this by I! Remember this by L! 1. (x 2)(x 3) x x Find the product of the first terms of the factors. 2. (x 2)(x 3) x 3 Find the product of the outer terms. 3. (x 2)(x 3) 2 x Find the product of the inner terms. 4. (x 2)(x 3) 2 3 Find the product of the last terms. Combining the four steps, we have It s called FOIL to give you an easy way of remembering the steps: First, Outer, Inner, and Last. (x 2)(x 3) x 2 3x 2x 6 x 2 5x 6 With practice, the FOIL method will let you write the products quickly and easily. Consider Example 5, which illustrates this approach. E x a m p l e 5 Using the FOIL Method Find the following products, using the FOIL method. F L x x 4 5 (a) (x 4)(x 5) 4x I When possible, you should combine the outer and inner products mentally and write just the final product. 5x O x 2 5x 4x 20 F O I L x 2 9x 20

5 366 Chapter 5 Polynomials F L x x ( 7)(3) b) (x 7)(x 3) 7x I Combine the outer and inner products as 4x. 3x O x 2 4x 21 CHECK YOURSELF 5 (a) (x 6)(x 7) (b) (x 3)(x 5) (c) (x 2)(x 8) Using the FOIL method, you can also find the product of binomials with leading coefficients other than 1 or with more than one variable. E x a m p l e 6 Using the FOIL Method Find the following products, using the FOIL method. 12x 2 6 (a) (4x 3)(3x 2) 9x Combine: 9x 9x x 8x 12x 2 x 6 6x 2 35y 2 (b) (3x 5y)(2x 7y) 10xy 21xy 6x 2 31xy 35y 2 Combine: 10xy 21xy 31xy

6 Section 5.4 Multiplying of Polynomials and Special Products 367 The following rule summarizes our work in multiplying binomials. To Multiply Two Binomials Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Find the first term of the product of the binomials by multiplying the first terms of the binomials (F). Find the middle term of the product as the sum of the outer and inner products (O I). Find the last term of the product by multiplying the last terms of the binomials (L). CHECK YOURSELF 6 (a) (5x 2)(3x 7) (b) (4a 3b)(5a 4b) (c) (3m 5n)(2m 3n) The FOIL method works well when multiplying any two binomials. But what if one of the factors has three or more terms? The vertical format, shown in Example 7, works for factors with any number of terms. E x a m p l e 7 Using the Vertical Method Multiply x 2 5x 8 by x 3. Step 1 x 2 5x 8 x 3 Multiply each term of x 2 5x 8 by 3. 3x 2 15x 24 Step 2 x 2 5x 8 x 3 Now multiply each term by x. 3x 2 15x 24 x 3 5x 2 8x Note that this line is shifted over so that like terms are in the same columns. Note: Using this vertical method ensures that each term of one factor multiples each term of the other. That s why it works! Step 3 x 2 5x 8 x 3 3x 2 15x 24 x 3 5x 2 8x Now add to combine like terms to write the x 3 2x 2 7x 24 product.

7 368 Chapter 5 Polynomials CHECK YOURSELF 7 Multiply 2x 2 5x 3 by 3x 4. Certain products occur frequently enough in algebra that it is worth learning special formulas for dealing with them. First, let s look at the square of a binomial, which is the product of two equal binomial factors. (x y) 2 (x y)(x y) x 2 2xy y 2 (x y) 2 (x y)(x y) x 2 2xy y 2 The patterns above lead us to the following rule. To Square a Binomial Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Find the first term of the square by squaring the first term of the binomial. Find the middle term of the square as twice the product of the two terms of the binomial. Find the last term of the square by squaring the last term of the binomial. E x a m p l e 8 Squaring a Binomial (a) (x 3) 2 x 2 2 x Caution! A very common mistake in squaring binomials is to forget the middle term. Twice the Square of product of Square of first term the two terms the last term x 2 6x 9 (b) (3a 4b) 2 (3a) 2 2(3a)(4b) (4b) 2 9a 2 24ab 16b 2 (c) (y 5) 2 y 2 2 y ( 5) ( 5) 2 y 2 10y 25

8 Section 5.4 Multiplying of Polynomials and Special Products 369 Again we have shown all the steps. With practice you can write just the square. (d) (5c 3d) 2 (5c) 2 2(5c)( 3d) ( 3d) 2 25c 2 30cd 9d 2 CHECK YOURSELF 8 (a) (2x 1) 2 (b) (4x 3y) 2 E x a m p l e 9 Squaring a Binomial Find (y 4) 2. The correct square is (y 4) 2 is not equal to y or y 2 16 You should see that (2 3) because CHECK YOURSELF 9 (y 4) 2 y 2 8y 16 The middle term is twice the product of y and 4. (a) (x 5) 2 (b) (3a 2) 2 (c) (y 7) 2 (d) (5x 2y) 2 A second special product will be very important in the next chapter, which deals with factoring. Suppose the form of a product is Let s see what happens when we multiply. (x y)(x y) The two factors differ only in sign. (x y)(x y) x 2 xy xy y 2 x 2 y 2 0

9 370 Chapter 5 Polynomials Since the middle term becomes 0, we have the following rule. Special Product The product of two binomials that differ only in the sign between the terms is the square of the first term minus the square of the second term. Let s look at the application of this rule in Example 10. E x a m p l e 1 0 Multiplying Polynomials Multiply each pair of factors. (a) (x 5)(x 5) x Square of the first term x 2 25 Square of the second term Note: (2y) 2 (2y)(2y) 4y 2 (b) (x 2y)(x 2y) x 2 (2y) 2 Square of Square of the first term the second term x 2 4y 2 (c) (3m n)(3m n) 9m 2 n 2 (d) (4a 3b)(4a 3b) 16a 2 9b 2 CHECK YOURSELF 10 Find the products. (a) (a 6)(a 6) (b) (x 3y)(x 3y) (c) (5n 2p)(5n 2p) (d) (7b 3c)(7b 3c) When finding the product of three or more factors, it is useful to first look for the pattern in which two binomials differ only in their sign. Finding this product first will make it easier to find the product of all the factors.

These binomials differ only in the sign. With two binomials, use the FOIL method. (c) (2x 1)(x 3)(2x 1) (2x 1) (x 3) (2x 1) These two binomials differ only in the sign of the second term. We can use the commutative (x 3)(2x 1)(2x 1) property to rearrange the terms.
