Find the product.
(7x - 6)2
a. 49x2 + 36
b. 49x2 - 84x + 36
c. 7x2 - 84x + 36
d. 7x2 + 36

When we square brackets, it is always advised to write out the brackets fully.
(7x - 6)² becomes
(7x - 6)(7x - 6)

Next, we follow FOIL
First (The first term in the set 1 multiplied by the first term in set 2)
Outer (The first term in set 1 multiplied by the second term in set 2)
Inner (The second term in set 1 multiplied by the first term in set 2)
Last (The second term in set 1 multiplied by the second term in set 2)

F   7x  x  7x = 49x²
O  7x  x  -6  = -42x
I    -6  x  7x  = -42x
L   -6  x  -6  = 36

Now, we add together all the terms

49x² + -42x + -42x +36

Adding a negative is the same as subtracting

49x² - 42x - 42x + 36

Finally, simplify (add together the like terms)

49x² -84x + 36

The answer of the above is
