anonymous · Answer

They both have a 3 in common so let's get rid of that first. Factor out like terms first.

3(x^2-9y^2)

Now I want you to think about Difference in squares

firejay5 · Answer

so would it be 3(x^2 - 9y^2) 3(x^2 + 9y^2)

anonymous · Answer

Nope.

For example i want you to distribute this for me

(x-3y)(x+3y)

firejay5 · Answer

oh okay and it gets 3(x^2 - 9y^2)

anonymous · Answer

yup. a^2 - b^2 = (a -b) (a + b)

firejay5 · Answer

what would be the answer then

anonymous · Answer

$$(x-3y)(x+3y)\leftarrow \rightarrow x^2-9y^2$$

anonymous · Answer

So what is 3(x^2-9y^2) factored

firejay5 · Answer

(x - 3y) (x +3y)

anonymous · Answer

Don't forget the 3 out in front

firejay5 · Answer

oh yea thanks! :D You're good at this

firejay5 · Answer

I have a total of 15, so I need your help on half of them
