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 ■
