Multiplying in your head : 

Multiplying in your head Multiply x² + 3x – 2 by 2x² – x + 4 (x² + 3x – 2)(2x² – x + 4)

Multiplying in your head : 

Multiplying in your head (x² + 3x – 2)(2x² – x + 4) Start by multiplying the first terms in each bracket to give a term in x4 = 2x4

Multiplying in your head : 

Multiplying in your head (x² + 3x – 2)(2x² – x + 4) Now look for pairs of terms which multiply together to give a term in x³. There are two pairs. – x³ = 2x4

Multiplying in your head : 

Multiplying in your head (x² + 3x – 2) ( 2x² – x + 4) Now look for pairs of terms which multiply together to give a term in x³. There are two pairs. – x³ + 6x³ = 2x4

Multiplying in your head : 

Multiplying in your head (x² + 3x – 2)(2x² – x + 4) Now look for pairs of terms which multiply together to give a term in x². There are three pairs. – x³ + 6x³ + 4x² = 2x4

Multiplying in your head : 

Multiplying in your head (x² + 3x – 2)(2x² – x + 4) Now look for pairs of terms which multiply together to give a term in x². There are three pairs. – x³ + 6x³ + 4x² = 2x4 - 3x²

Multiplying in your head : 

Multiplying in your head (x² + 3x – 2)(2x² – x + 4) Now look for pairs of terms which multiply together to give a term in x². There are three pairs. – x³ + 6x³ + 4x² - 3x² - 4x² = 2x4

Multiplying in your head : 

Multiplying in your head (x² + 3x – 2)(2x² – x + 4) Now look for pairs of terms which multiply together to give a term in x. There are two pairs. = 2x4 – x³ + 6x³ + 4x² - 3x² - 4x² + 12x

Multiplying in your head : 

Multiplying in your head (x² + 3x – 2)(2x² – x + 4) Now look for pairs of terms which multiply together to give a term in x. There are two pairs. = 2x4 – x³ + 6x³ + 4x² - 3x² - 4x² + 12x + 2x

Multiplying in your head : 

Multiplying in your head (x² + 3x – 2)(2x² – x + 4) Finally multiply the last two terms in each bracket to give the constant term. = 2x4 – x³ + 6x³ + 4x² - 3x² - 4x² + 12x + 2x - 8

Multiplying in your head : 

Multiplying in your head (x² + 3x – 2)(2x² – x + 4) Now simplify by collecting like terms. = 2x4 – x³ + 6x³ + 4x² - 3x² - 4x² + 12x + 2x - 8 = 2x4 + 5x³ - 3x² + 14x - 8
