Question

Multiply (y-6)(y+4)

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To multiply (y-6)(y+4), we can use the FOIL method.

F: Multiply the first terms in each binomial: y * y = y^2
O: Multiply the outer terms in each binomial: y * 4 = 4y
I: Multiply the inner terms in each binomial: -6 * y = -6y
L: Multiply the last terms in each binomial: -6 * 4 = -24

Now, combine like terms: 4y - 6y = -2y

Therefore, the final expression is:
(y-6)(y+4) = y^2 + 4y - 6y -24
Simplifying further, we get:
y^2 - 2y - 24
