Factor the trinomial completely.
-$36 x ^ { 3 } y + 96 x ^ { 2 } y + 64 x y$
A)4xy(3x + 4)(3x + 4)
B)4xy(16x + 4)(x + 4)
C)4xy(3x + 1)(3x + 16)
D)4y(3x + 1)(3x + 16)

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

First, factor out the greatest common factor, which is $4xy$, giving $4xy(9x^2 + 24x + 16)$. Then, factor the quadratic inside the parentheses, which factors to $(3x + 4)(3x + 4)$, resulting in $4xy(3x + 4)(3x + 4)$.
