Question

Find a value for m and n to make a true statement. Select all the options that apply.
left parenthesis m x plus n y right parenthesis squared equals 4 x squared plus 12 x y plus 9 y squared

  1.  m space equals space 2 comma space n space equals space 3
  2.  m space equals space minus 2 comma space n space equals space 3
  3.  m space equals space minus 2 comma space n space equals space minus 3
  4. Both a and c

hintHint:

Compare with left parenthesis a plus b right parenthesis squared equals a squared plus 2 a b plus b squared comma

The correct answer is: Both a and c


    Using the pattern left parenthesis a plus b right parenthesis squared equals a squared plus 2 a b plus b squared comma
    left parenthesis m x plus n y right parenthesis squared equals m squared x squared plus 2 m n x y plus n squared y squared
    m squared x squared plus 2 m n x y plus n squared y squared equals 4 x squared plus 12 x y plus 9 y squared
    m squared equals 4 comma m equals plus 2 o r minus 2
    2 m n space equals space 12 comma space m n space equals space 6
    n squared equals 9 comma n equals plus 3 o r minus 3
    S o comma space m space equals space 2 space a n d space n space equals space 3 space O R space m space equals space minus 2 space a n d space n space equals space minus 3 space
