Answer:

[tex](2p+9)^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

[tex]4p^2+36p+81[/tex]

This is in the form;

[tex]ap^2+bp+c[/tex]

[tex]a=4,b=36,c=81[/tex]

[tex]ac=4\times 81[/tex]

Rewrite to get

[tex]ac=4\times 9\times9[/tex]

[tex]ac=18\times18[/tex]

We split the middle term to obtain;

[tex]=4p^2+18p+18p+81[/tex]

Factor to get;

[tex]=2p(2p+9)+9(2p+9)[/tex]

Factor further to get;

[tex]=(2p+9)(2p+9)[/tex]

We simplify further to get;

[tex]=(2p+9)^2[/tex]
