Expanding two brackets

How do I expand two brackets using FOIL?

  • Every term in the first bracket must be multiplied by every term in the second bracket

    • Expanding ( + 1)(x + 3) requires 4 multiplications in total

  • A good way to remember all the multiplications is FOIL

    • F = First: multiply together the first terms in each bracket

    • O = Outside: multiply the first term in the first bracket by the last term in the last bracket

      • Visually, these are the outer terms

    • I = Inside: multiply the last term in the first bracket by the first term in the last bracket

      • Visually, these are the inner terms

    • L = Last: multiply together the last terms in each bracket

  • It helps to put negative terms in brackets when multiplying

  • Simplify the final answer by collecting like terms (if there are any)

How do I expand two brackets using a grid?

  • You may prefer a more visual method using a grid

  • To expand (x + 1)(x + 3), write out the brackets as row and column headings of a grid

    • They can be in either direction

    • Remember to write the appropriate sign in front of each term

    x

    +1

    x

     

     

    +3

     

     

  • For each cell in the grid, multiply the term in the row heading by the term in the column heading

    x

    +1

    x

    x2

    x

    +3

    3x

    3

  • Add together all the terms inside the grid to get the answer

    • x2 + x + 3x + 3

  • Collect like terms

  • x2 + 4x + 3

How do I expand a bracket squared?

  • Remember that a square number is a number multiplied by itself

  • Write ( + 3)2 as ( + 3)( + 3) and use one of the methods above

    • With FOIL: (x + 3)( + 3) = x + 3x + 3x + 9

    • Then collect like terms: x2 + 6x + 9

  • Do not make the common mistake of saying (x + 3)2 is x2 + 32

    • This cannot be true, try substituting in x = 1

      • you would get (1 + 3)2 = 42 = 16 on the left

      • but 12 + 32 = 1 + 9 = 10 on the right

Worked Example

(a) Expand open parentheses 2 x minus 3 close parentheses open parentheses x plus 4 close parentheses.

Using FOIL, multiply together the first, outer, inner and last terms
