Question

NEED AN ANSWER BEFORE 2:40!!!

Factor
X^2 + 6x + 9
Please show all work and use a factor tree

Answer 1

(x+3)², if looking for x, X = -3

Explanation:

X²+6x+9 is a perfect square as you immediately can see that 3+3 = 6 and 3*3 = 9.

I used the generic rectangle to solve it, 9 into top right corner and then x² onto the bottom left, multiplying eachother to get 9x² which is formed by 3x and 3x multiplied so you would have (x+3) (x+3).

I'll have a picture.

Answer 2

Explanation:

X^2 and 9 are two squares, while 6 can be obtain my multiplying x and 3 by 2.

so this is a square of a binomial

(x+3)^2

or

(x+3)(x+3)
