What is the completely factored form of d4 -8d2 + 16

Mathematics

irinina [24]3 years ago

According to Vieta's Formulas, if x_1,x_2 are solutions of a given quadratic equation:

ax^2+bx+c=0

Then:

a(x-x_1)(x-x_2) is the completely factored form of ax^2+bx+c.

If choose x=d^2, then:

\displaystyle x^2-8x+16=0\\\\x_{1,2}= \frac{8\pm  \sqrt{64-64} }{2}=4

So, according to Vieta's formula, we can get:

x^2-8x+16=(x-4)(x-4)= (x-4)^2

But x=d^2:

d^4-8d^2+16=(d^2-4)^2=[(d+2)(d-2)]^2=(d+2)^2(d-2)^2

REPEATED REASONING What happens to the circumference and the area of a circle when you double the radius? triple the radius?
GalinKa [24]

Answer: So when you double the radius, the area goes up by 4 times because 2 squared is 4. The area will always go up by the square of how much the radius goes up. By contrast, the circumference will only double -- from 12.56 to 25.12 because you do not square the radius (or diameter) -- you just multiply it by pi.
