Factor the following polynomial 25x2 30xy 9y2 25x2 30xy

Factor the following polynomial 25x^2 - 30xy + 9y^2 25x^2 - 30xy + 9y^2 =

25x^2- 30xy + 9y^2

Tis looks in the form
a^2 - 2ab+ b^2

Lets check and confirm...

(5x)^2 - 2(5x)(3y) + (3y)^2

Yes indeed!

where a = 5x and b = 3y..

So, ^2 - 2ab + b^2 is (a - b)^2

So, here we have :

(5x - 3y)^2 or
just write it as

(5x - 3y)(5x - 3y) ----> ANSWER
