expand (3x-2)squared
To expand the expression (3x - 2) squared, we can apply the concept of the distributive property and simplify the expression step by step.
Step 1: Square the first term.
(3x) squared = 9x^2
Step 2: Multiply the first term by twice the product of the two terms.
2 * (3x) * (-2) = -12x
Step 3: Square the last term.
(-2) squared = 4
Combining all the terms together, we get:
(3x - 2)^2 = 9x^2 - 12x + 4
Therefore, the expanded form of (3x - 2) squared is 9x^2 - 12x + 4.
(3x-2)^2=
(3x-2)(3x-2)
now multiply each part separately as
3x.3x-2.3x-2.3x+2.2
then combine terms
9x^2-12x+4
