Understanding Binomial Multiplication

The video tutorial explains how to multiply two binomials using the distributive property. It begins by introducing the concept and encourages viewers to attempt the problem independently. The instructor then demonstrates the step-by-step application of the distributive property, first distributing one binomial across the terms of the other. The process involves multiplying each term and then simplifying the resulting expression by combining like terms. The tutorial concludes with a recap of the steps taken to solve the problem.

What is the initial problem discussed in the video?
