Hello,

We have : (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²

4x² + 20x + 25 = (2x)² + 2 × 2x × 5 + 5² = (2x + 5)² → answer B

Here, we have a = 2x and b = 5 !

Answer:

[tex]\textsf{b.} \quad (2x+5)^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given quadratic equation:

[tex]4x^2+20x+25[/tex]

To factor a quadratic in the form [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex], find two numbers that multiply to [tex]ac[/tex] and sum to [tex]b[/tex].

[tex]\implies ac=4 \times 25=100[/tex]

[tex]\implies b=20[/tex]

Factors of 100 that sum to 20:   10 and 10

Rewrite [tex]b[/tex] as the sum of these two numbers:

[tex]\implies 4x^2+10x+10x+25[/tex]

Factorize the first two terms and the last two terms separately:

[tex]\implies 2x(2x+5)+5(2x+5)[/tex]

Factor out the common term (2x + 5):

[tex]\implies (2x+5)(2x+5)[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]\implies (2x+5)^2[/tex]
