  1. It would be 9x^2 because you are squaring the whole 3x so (3x)^2 therefore you have to square both the 3 and the x. 3^2*x^2 which would simplify down to 9x^2

    The rest of the problem...

    2*((3x-1)(3x-1)) =

    2*(9x^2 - 6x + 1) =

    18x^2 -12x + 2 = FINAL ANSWER


  2. 3x * 3x = 3 * x * 3 * x = 3 * 3 * x * x = 9 x^2

  3. when you distribute you will get:

    [(9x^2) - (3x) - (3x) +1] * 2

    (18x^2) - 6x - 6x + 2

    (18x^2) -12x + 2


  4. you get 9x^2

  5. 2 ( 3x - 1 ) ( 3x - 1 )

    2 ( 9x ² - 6x + 1 )

    18x ² - 12x + 2

  6. 2*((3x-1)(3x-1))=

    2*(3x-1)^2=

    2(9x^2+1-6x)=

    18x^2+2-12x.

  7. i don't quite get your question. This expression doesn't have 3x going into anything.

    2*((3x-1)(3x-1)) is the same as:

    2 * (9x² -6x + 1)

    18x² -12x + 2

  8. good luck!

  9. 2(9x^2+1-6x)

  10. u would get 9x^2. just think of it like this: F.O.I.L. First Outer Inner Last.
