Use the FOIL method, First Outer Inner Last. Multiply 3x and bx to get 3bx2. Then multiply 3x and -by to get -3xby. Multiply -3y and bx to get -3ybx. Lastly, multiply -3y and -by to get 3by (a negative times a negative makes a positive). Then you have 3bx2 + -3xby + -3ybx + 3by. You can rearrange -3ybx to -3xby. Then combine the two middle terms (-3xby and -3xby) to get -6xby. This leaves you with 3bx2 + -6xby + 3by, or 3bx2 - 6xby + 3by.

The other factor is 1.
(a + 2b)(a + 2b)
Since the problem has 4 terms, first you factor x cubed plus 9x squared, then you factor 2x plus 18. So when you factor the first two term, you would get x sqaured (x plus 9). Then when you factor the last two terms and you get 2 (x plus 9). Ypure final answer would be (x squared plus 2)(x plus 9)
factor the trinomial 16x^2+24x+9
You can't factor it
That does not factor neatly.
Factor x2 plus 12xp plus 36p2 is (x+6p)(x+6p).
