The correct Answer is:
To simplify the expression \((2a-3b+1)^{2}+(2a-3b-1)^{2}\), we will use the algebraic identity for the square of a binomial. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the terms**: Let \(x = 2a - 3b\). Then we can rewrite the expression as: \[ (x + 1)^{2} + (x - 1)^{2} \] 2. **Apply the binomial square identity**: The identity states that \((a + b)^{2} = a^{2} + 2ab + b^{2}\). Thus, we can expand both squares: \[ (x + 1)^{2} = x^{2} + 2x(1) + 1^{2} = x^{2} + 2x + 1 \] \[ (x - 1)^{2} = x^{2} - 2x(1) + 1^{2} = x^{2} - 2x + 1 \] 3. **Combine the expanded forms**: Now, add the two expanded forms together: \[ (x + 1)^{2} + (x - 1)^{2} = (x^{2} + 2x + 1) + (x^{2} - 2x + 1) \] 4. **Simplify the expression**: Combine like terms: \[ = x^{2} + x^{2} + 2x - 2x + 1 + 1 \] \[ = 2x^{2} + 2 \] 5. **Substitute back for \(x\)**: Recall that \(x = 2a - 3b\): \[ = 2(2a - 3b)^{2} + 2 \] 6. **Expand \( (2a - 3b)^{2} \)**: \[ (2a - 3b)^{2} = (2a)^{2} - 2(2a)(3b) + (3b)^{2} = 4a^{2} - 12ab + 9b^{2} \] 7. **Combine everything**: Substitute back into the expression: \[ = 2(4a^{2} - 12ab + 9b^{2}) + 2 \] \[ = 8a^{2} - 24ab + 18b^{2} + 2 \] ### Final Answer: Thus, the simplified expression is: \[ \boxed{8a^{2} - 24ab + 18b^{2} + 2} \]
