Multiply and simplify: y(2x+3y)(2x+3y)
vekshin1
<span>Simplifying y(2x + 3y)(2x + 3y)

Multiply (2x + 3y) * (2x + 3y) y(2x * (2x + 3y) + 3y * (2x + 3y)) y((2x * 2x + 3y * 2x) + 3y * (2x + 3y))
 
Reorder the terms: y((6xy + 4x2) + 3y * (2x + 3y)) y((6xy + 4x2) + 3y * (2x + 3y)) y(6xy + 4x2 + (2x * 3y + 3y * 3y)) y(6xy + 4x2 + (6xy + 9y2))

Reorder the terms: y(6xy + 6xy + 4x2 + 9y2)
 
Combine like terms: 6xy + 6xy = 12xy y(12xy + 4x2 + 9y2) (12xy * y + 4x2 * y + 9y2 * y) (12xy2 + 4x2y + 9y3)</span>
