please no nonsense answers
Answers
Answer:
-1 • (6a - b)2
Step-by-step explanation:
STEP
1
:
Equation at the end of step 1
((0 - (22•32a2)) + 12ab) - b2
STEP
2
:
STEP
3
:
Pulling out like terms
3.1 Pull out like factors :
-36a2 + 12ab - b2 = -1 • (36a2 - 12ab + b2)
Trying to factor a multi variable polynomial :
3.2 Factoring 36a2 - 12ab + b2
Try to factor this multi-variable trinomial using trial and error
Found a factorization : (6a - b)•(6a - b)
Detecting a perfect square :
3.3 36a2 -12ab +b2 is a perfect square
It factors into (6a-b)•(6a-b)
which is another way of writing (6a-b)2
How to recognize a perfect square trinomial:
• It has three terms
• Two of its terms are perfect squares themselves
• The remaining term is twice the product of the square roots of the other two terms
