Apply Distributive Property: Apply the distributive property (also known as the FOIL method) to multiply the two binomials (x+7) and (x+9).(x+7)(x+9)=x(x)+x(9)+7(x)+7(9)
Perform Multiplication: Perform the multiplication for each term.x(x)=x2x(9)=9x7(x)=7x7(9)=63
Combine Like Terms: Combine like terms 9x and \(7x\"). x2+9x+7x+63=x2+(9x+7x)+63=x2+16x+63
