Answer:

x² - 12x + 36

Explanation:

Given

(x - 6)² = (x - 6)(x - 6)

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

x(x - 6) - 6(x - 6) ← distribute both parenthesis

= x² - 6x - 6x + 36 ← collect like terms

= x² - 12x + 36

The answer will be x - 36, first u do the brackets and then you will get x - 6 ^ 2 then all you do it square times 6 by itself. You will then get x - 36
