<h1 align="center">Algebra - Expanding</h1>
<p align="center">"Expanding" means <b>removing the</b> <span class="large">( )</span> ... but we have to do it the right way!</p>
<p><span class="large">( )</span> are called "parentheses" or "<a href="brackets.html">brackets</a>"</p>
<div class="def">
<p>Whatever is inside the <span class="large">( )</span> needs to be treated as a "package". </p>
<p>So when multiplying: multiply by everything inside the "package".</p>
</div><p>&nbsp;</p>
<div class="example">
<h3>Example: Expand 3 × (5+2)</h3>
<p>Answer:</p>
<p class="center"><img src="images/expanding-ex1.svg" alt="3 x (5+2) = 3 x 5 + 3 x 2"></p>
<p>It is now expanded.</p>
<p>We can also complete the calculation:</p>
<p class="larger" align="center">3 × (5+2) = <b>3 × 5</b> + <b>3 × 2</b> <br>
&nbsp; &nbsp; = 15 + 6 <br>
= 21 &nbsp; </p>
</div>
<h2>In Algebra</h2>
<p>In Algebra putting two things next to each other usually means to multiply. </p>
<p align="center"> So <b>3(a+b)</b> means to multiply <b>3</b> by <b>(a+b)</b></p>
<p>Here is an example of expanding, using variables <b>a</b>, <b>b</b> and <b>c</b> instead of numbers:</p>
<script type="text/javascript">playerMain("images/expand-abc.txt",600,140);</script>
<p>And here is another example involving some numbers. Notice the "·" between the 3 and 6 to mean multiply, so <b>3·6 = 18</b>:</p>
<script type="text/javascript">playerMain("images/expand-3x6.txt",600,120);</script>
<p><a href="../multiplying-negatives.html">Multiplying negatives</a> has special rules: a negative times a positive gives a negative, but multiplying two negatives gives a positive:</p>
<script type="text/javascript">playerMain("images/expand-3am5.txt",600,120);</script>
<p>In that case <b>3 · -5 = +15</b> (a positive answer), but here is an example where the second part is negative:</p>
<script type="text/javascript">playerMain("images/expand-2x-xa.txt",600,120);</script>
<p>So the second term ended up negative because <b>2x · a = 2ax</b>, (it is also neater to write "2ax" rather than "2xa").</p>
<p> That was also interesting because of x being <a href="../square-root.html">squared</a> (x<sup>2</sup>)</p>
<p>Lastly, we have an example with three terms inside:</p>
<script type="text/javascript">playerMain("images/expand-a-2bc.txt",600,120);</script>
<p>The same rule applies: multiply by everything inside the (). </p>
<p>And here is a hint: when a multiplication is obvious (like <b>a · 2</b>) do it straight away, but when it needs more thought (like <b>a · b</b>) leave it for the next line.</p>
<h2>Many Times Many</h2>
<p>How do we do something like this?</p>
<p class="center larger">(x + 2y)(3x 4y)</p>
<p class="center">Read <a href="polynomials-multiplying.html">Multiplying Polynomials</a>to find out!</p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p>Multiply by everything inside the () </p>
<p>Do it in two stages:</p>
<ul>
<li>Write down the multiplications</li>
<li>Then do the multiplications </li>
</ul>
