Multiply: $(2x - 9y)(8x - 3y)$
  	
	$
	\begin{equation}
	\begin{aligned}
		&= 2x(8x) - 2x(3y) - 8x(9y) - 9y(-3y)
        && \text{Use foil method}\\
        \\
        &= 16x^2 - 6xy - 72xy + 27y^2
        && \text{Evaluate the expression}\\
        \\
        &= 16x^2 - 78xy + 27y^2
        && \text{Combine like terms}
	\end{aligned}
