How to calculate

Expand two expressions of the form ax + b and cx + d into quadratic coefficients.

Quadratic coefficient = a*c
Linear coefficient = a*d+b*c
Constant coefficient = b*d

Worked example

  • First x coefficient: 2
  • First constant: 3
  • Second x coefficient: 4
  • Second constant: 5
  • Quadratic coefficient: 8
  • Linear coefficient: 22
  • Constant coefficient: 15

Assumptions and limits

Read the output as A x² + B x + C, including zero and negative coefficients. Inputs are real numbers; no symbolic parsing or factorization is performed.

Results are rounded for display; calculations use unrounded values. Read our calculation methodology.

Understanding the result

Expand two expressions of the form ax + b and cx + d into quadratic coefficients. The middle coefficient combines both cross-products. Keep its sign when writing the expanded polynomial.
