Rewrite it in the form a^2 + 2ab + b^2, where a = 2x and b = 3
(2x)^2 + 2(2x)(3) + 3^2
Use the Square of Sum: (a + b)^2 = a^2 + 2ab + b^2
(2x + 3)^2
Answer:
(2x+3) ^2
Step-by-step explanation:
4x^2 + 12x+9
This is the sum of squares
(a+b) ^2 = a^2 + 2ab+ b^2
let a = 2x and b=3
a^2 = (2x) ^2 = 4x^2
2ab = 2*2x*3 = 12x
b^2 =9
so 4x^2 + 12x+9 factors into (2x+3) ^2
