Question

How do you multiply `(y+8) (y+3)`?

Answer 1

`= color(blue)(y^2+ 11y+24`

Explanation:

`color(blue)((y+8))(y+3)`

Here, we need to multiply each term within the first bracket with each term of the second bracket.

`= color(blue)((y)) * (y+3 ) +color(blue)((8)) *(y+3)`

`= y^2+3y + 8y+24`

`= color(blue)(y^2+ 11y+24`
