If a trinomial is a perfect square, then the discriminant will equal 0. The discriminant is equal to B^2-4AC. The variables come from the standard form of a quadratic which is Ax^2+Bx+C In this problem, A=81, B=-72, and C=16 so the discriminant is: (-72)^2-4(81)(16)=5,184-5,184=0 so this is a perfect square trinomial. To factor, notice that 81=9^2 and 16=4^2, so 81x^2=(9x)^2. We can then factor the trinomial into (9x+4)(9x-4)
It's a quadratic trinomial expression in 'x'. Its numerical value depends on the numerical value of 'x'. There are an infinite number of possibilities.
