Question

multiply (v+3)(v-3)

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To multiply (v + 3)(v - 3), we can use the FOIL method.

F: Multiply the First terms of each binomial:
(v) * (v) = v^2

O: Multiply the Outer terms of each binomial:
(v) * (-3) = -3v

I: Multiply the Inner terms of each binomial:
(3) * (v) = 3v

L: Multiply the Last terms of each binomial:
(3) * (-3) = -9

Now, let's combine all the terms:
v^2 - 3v + 3v - 9

The middle terms -3v and +3v cancel each other out. Therefore, the simplified expression is:
v^2 - 9
