Factor polynomial $$ 9z^{2}+30z+25 $$
Answer
$$ 9z^{2}+30z+25 = ( 3z+5 )^{ 2 } $$
Explanation
Both the first and third terms are perfect squares.
$$ 9x^2 = \left( \color{blue}{ 3z } \right)^2 ~~ \text{and} ~~ 25 = \left( \color{red}{ 5 } \right)^2 $$The middle term ( $ 30x $ ) is two times the product of the terms that are squared.
$$ 30x = 2 \cdot \color{blue}{3z} \cdot \color{red}{5} $$We can conclude that the polynomial $ 9z^{2}+30z+25 $ is a perfect square trinomial, so we will use the formula below.
$$ A^2 + 2AB + B^2 = (A + B)^2 $$In this example we have $ \color{blue}{ A = 3z } $ and $ \color{red}{ B = 5 } $ so,
$$ 9z^{2}+30z+25 = ( \color{blue}{ 3z } + \color{red}{ 5 } )^2 $$This page was created using
