Question

Using the identity (a + b)(a – b) = a2 – b2, find the following product

(1 + 3b)(3b – 1)

Sum

Solution

(1 + 3b)(3b – 1)

(1 + 3b)(3b – 1) can be written as (3b + 1)(3b – 1)

Substituting a = 3b and b = 1

In (a + b)(a – b) = a2 – b2, we get

(3b + 1)(3b – 1) = (3b)2 – 12 

= 32 × b2 – 12

(3b + 1)(3b – 1) = 9b2 – 12
