Multiply polynomial $ \, \color{blue}{ 4b-3 } \, $ by $ \, \color{orangered}{ 4b+3 }$.

$$ \left( \color{blue}{4b-3} \right) \cdot \left( \color{orangered}{4b+3} \right) = 16b^2-9 $$

In this example we are multiplying two binomials so FOIL method can be used.

$$ \begin{aligned} \left( \color{blue}{ 4b-3}\right) \cdot \left( \color{orangered}{ 4b+3}\right) &= \underbrace{ \color{blue}{4b} \cdot \color{orangered}{4b} }_{\text{FIRST}} + \underbrace{ \color{blue}{4b} \cdot \color{orangered}{3} }_{\text{OUTER}} + \underbrace{ \left( \color{blue}{-3} \right) \cdot \color{orangered}{4b} }_{\text{INNER}} + \underbrace{ \left( \color{blue}{-3} \right) \cdot \color{orangered}{3} }_{\text{LAST}} = \\ &= 16b^2 + 12b + \left( -12b\right) + \left( -9\right) = \\ &= 16b^2 + 12b + \left( -12b\right) + \left( -9\right) = \\ &= 16b^2-9; \end{aligned} $$
