Solution

The correct option is A 4
We know that one of the formula is (a+b+c)2=a2+b2+c2+2ab+2bc+2ca.
In the given polynomial 9x2+y2+4z2+6xy4yz12xz, we observe that a=3x,b=y and c=2z, therefore, comparing with the above formula, we get:
9x2+y2+4z2+6xy4yz12xz=(3x)2+(y)2+(2z)2+(2×3x×y)+(2×y×(2z))+(2×(2z)×3x)
=(3x+y2z)2
Let us substitute x=1,y=1 and z=1 in (3x+y2z)2 as shown below:
[3×1)+1(2×1)]2=(3+12)2=22=4
Hence, 9x2+y2+4z2+6xy4yz12xz=4 if x=1,y=1 and z=1.
