Answer:a^2+2ab+b^2
Step-by-step explanation:
First write it out in extended form, (a+b)(a+b) then multiply each term by the other in each parenthesis, such as a*a+b*b+a*b+a*b
Then, once you have done that, simplify it. you will then get the answer a^2+2ab+b^2

Answer:
Number of birds = 13
Explanation:
An animal shelter spends $1.50 per day to care for each bird and $3.50 per day to care for each cat.
Let the number of bird be 'a' and number of cat be 'b'.
Total money spent = 103.5
1.5 a + 3.5 b = 103.5 ------------------------equation 1
Total number of birds and cats = 37
a + b = 37 ------------------------equation 2
1.5 x equation 2
1.5 a + 1.5 b = 55.5 ------------------equation 3
equation 1 - equation 3
2 b = 103.5 - 55.5 = 48
b = 24
Substituting in equation 2
a = 37 - 24 = 13
Number of birds = 13, Number of cats = 24.
