I did the revision for this one i posted before but i don't seem to find my error...
Multiply. (x-8)^2
this is what i did to solve.
(x-8)(x-8)
then I foiled
x^2-8x-8x+64
then i combined like terms
x^2-16x+64
correct
Yes, your solution is correct!
To multiply (x-8)^2, you applied the FOIL method correctly.
You started by multiplying the first terms of each binomial: x * x = x^2.
Next, you multiplied the outer terms: x * (-8) = -8x.
Then, you multiplied the inner terms: (-8) * x = -8x.
Finally, you multiplied the last terms: (-8) * (-8) = 64.
Next, you combined the like terms -8x and -8x to get -16x.
So, the fully simplified answer is x^2 - 16x + 64. Great job!
