Im working with FOIL distribution system, and the distribution says that x times 2x = 2x^2. Why does it make it squared equation? wouldn't it just be 2x because 1x times 2x equals 2x?

    No, let me explain

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The definition of squared is a value multiplied by itself, and in this case, 2x (x) x is being multiplied by itself. Keep in mind that x is a value, so it could be any number. We can't say that x times 2x equals 2x, because you are multiplying 2x by the value of x.
