Question

Which statement is true about the product (9x2 – 4y2)(3x – 2y)?

Answer 1

Answer:

It's the last choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.  (3x - 2y)(3x -2y)

= 9x^2 - 12xy + 4y^2

The product is  (9x^2 - 4y^2) (9x^2 - 12xy + 4y^2)

which is neither a  difference of 2 squares  or perfect square trinomial.

2.  (3x - 2y)(3x + 2y)

= 9x^2 - 6xy + 6xy - 4y^2

= 9x^2 - 4y^2

and (9x^2 - 4y^2(9x^2 - 4y^2) is a perfect square.
