Find the product of (x-3)^2

x^2 - 6x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

(x-3)^2

(x-3)(x-3)

x^2 -3x -3x + 9

x^2 - 6x + 9

^2 means (x - 3) times itself twice.

(x - 3)(x - 3)             multiplying polynomials- Firsts, Outs, Inners, Lasts (FOIL)

                                 Firsts (x* x)   Outs (x*-3)   Inners (-3 * x)   Lasts (-3*-3)

xx -3x -3x +9            Combine like terms.

      -3x -3x             Adding/subtracting integers- same signs means you add          

                                     and keep the sign.

x^2 -6x + 9              

okay wait before i answer, is this for your points on a graph?
