\boxed{\bold{9x^(2) \ - \ 6xy \ + y^(2) }}


\bold{[ \ Explanation \ ]}


  • \bold{Find \ Expansion: \ (3x \ - \ y^(2) )}


\bold{----------------------}


  • \bold{[Apply \ Perfect \ Square \ Formula\ (\left(a-b\right)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2)] \ a \ = \ 3x, \ b \ = \ y}


\bold{\left(3x\right)^2-2\cdot \:3xy+y^2}


  • \bold{[Simplify \ \left(3x\right)^2-2\cdot \:3xy+y^2] \ 9x^2-6xy+y^2}

=
\bold{9x^2-6xy+y^2}


\boxed{\bold{[] \ Eclipsed \ []}}
