Ok what is the rest of the question
3×6/8 reduce is 3× 3/4= 3/1×3/4=9/4 or 2 1/4
P=2(L+W)
A=LW
given
P=62
62=2(L+W)
divide 2
31=L+W
minus W
L=31-W
sub into other one
A=LW
A=(31-W)(W)
228=31W-W^2
times -1
W^2-31W=-228
add 228 both sides
W^2-31W+228=0
factor
what 2 numbers multiply to get 228 and add to get -31
-19 and -12
(W-19)(W-12)=0
set to zero
W-19=0
W=19
W-12=0
W=12
sub back
L=31-W
L=31-12
L=19
or
L=31-19
L=12

Answer: (3x + 11y)^2
Demonstration:
The polynomial is a perfect square trinomial, because:
1) √ [9x^2] = 3x
2) √121y^2] = 11y
3) 66xy = 2 *(3x)(11y)
Then it is factored as a square binomial, being the factored expression:
[ 3x + 11y]^2
Now you can verify working backwar, i.e expanding the parenthesis.
Remember that the expansion of a square binomial is:
- square of the first term => (3x)^2 = 9x^2
- double product of first term times second term =>2 (3x)(11y) = 66xy
- square of the second term => (11y)^2 = 121y^2
=> [3x + 11y]^2 = 9x^2 + 66xy + 121y^2, which is the original polynomial.
