(5a−3)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

25a^2 - 30a + 9

Factor the expression by grouping. First, the expression needs to be rewritten as 25a^2+pa+qa+9. To find p and q, set up a system to be solved.

p+q=−30

pq=25×9=225

Since pq is positive, p and q have the same sign. Since p+q is negative, p and q are both negative. List all such integer pairs that give product 225.

−1,−225

−3,−75

−5,−45

−9,−25

−15,−15

Calculate the sum for each pair.

−1−225=−226

−3−75=−78

−5−45=−50

−9−25=−34

−15−15=−30

The solution is the pair that gives sum −30.

p=−15

q=−15

Rewrite 25a^2 - 30a + 9 as (25a^2−15a)+(−15a+9).

(25a^2−15a)+(−15a+9)

Factor out 5a in the first and −3 in the second group.

5a(5a−3)−3(5a−3)

Factor out common term 5a−3 by using distributive property.

(5a−3)(5a−3)

Rewrite as a binomial square.

(5a−3)^2
