If you were really stuck, you could try multiplying out the factors given in B, C and D.  Try one of those.  Do the results equal x^2 + 36y^2 ?

You are welcome to contact anyone you want for help, but the suggestions I have already given you should be all you really need to know to select the correct answer to this question.  Have you tried the multiplication I've suggested?  Isn't your objective to learn how to solve problems by yourself?

So can some one explain it to me through numbers lolz?

agent0smith · Answer

Do as @mathmale did. I'll start the first for you... 

 (x + 6y)(x - 6y) = x^2 + 6xy - 6xy - 36y^2 = 

 (x + 6y)(x + 6y) = 

 (x - 6y)(x - 6y) =
