HELP!! Find the product. (6a + b)2 1. 12a2 + ab + b2 2. 36a2 + ab + 36b2 3. 36a2 + 12ab + b2 4. 36a2 + b2

Answer 1

Answer:

option 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(6a + b)²

= (6a + b)(6a + b)

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

6a(6a + b) + b(6a + b) ← distribute both parenthesis

= 36a² + 6ab + 6ab + b² ← collect like terms

= 36a² + 12ab + b²
