Two possibilities here. 9x - 30x +25 = -21x + 25 and done, but I don't think you mean that.
9x² - 30x + 25 is more likely.
This is easier than normal, since this follows the square pattern.
(ax-b)² = a²x²-2ab+b²
a² = 9 so a=3
b² = 25 so b=5 3*5*2 = 30, so it checks.
(3x-5)(3x-5) = 9x² -15x - 15x + 25 = 9x² -30x + 25 ■

First of all, [ 9x2 + 4 ] is not an equation.
Then, it can't be factored without using imaginary numbers.
If you want to do that, then the factored form is
(3x + 2i) (3x - 2i) .
' i ' is the square root of -1 .
That doesn't factor neatly. Applying the quadratic formula, we find two real solutions: (-9 plus or minus the square root of 73) divided by 2.

x = -8.772001872658766
Assuming that's 9x2, it factors to (3x - 5i)(3x + 5i)
where i is the square root of -1.
x2 + 9x - 22 = x2 + (11 - 2)x + (11 x -2)
= x2 + 11x -2x + (11 x -2)
= (x + 11)(x - 2)
No 9xx-18x+36 9(xx-2x+4) xx-2x+4 (doesn't factor evenly)
3x + 1)(3x - 4)
There's a chance this was notated incorrectly. It looks like it wants to be some combination of 3x and 2. 9x2 + 12x + 4 = (3x + 2)(3x + 2) or (3x + 2)2 -9x2 - 12x - 4 = -(3x + 2)2 9x2 - 12x + 4 = (3x - 2)2 -9x2 + 12x - 4 = -(3x - 2)2

The same way you'd factor any other similar equation. You're going to run into the complication that the roots of that equation are not real numbers, though; unless you know what complex numbers are, you won't be able to do it.
