:
4a2 - b2
Simplify ————————
2a - b
Trying to factor as a Difference of Squares:
2.1 Factoring: 4a2 - b2
Theory : A difference of two perfect squares, A2 - B2 can be factored into (A+B) • (A-B)
Proof : (A+B) • (A-B) =
A2 - AB + BA - B2 =
A2 - AB + AB - B2 =
A2 - B2
Note : AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.
Note : - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.
Check : 4 is the square of 2
Check : a2 is the square of a1
Check : b2 is the square of b1
Factorization is : (2a + b) • (2a - b)
Canceling Out :
2.2 Cancel out (2a - b) which appears on both sides of the fraction line.
Final result :
2a + b

Answer:
92 is the smaller even integer
Step-by-step explanation:
x = first even integer
x+2 = second even integer
(x) + (x+2) = 186
Combine like terms
2x+2 = 186
Subtract 2 from each side
2x+2-2 =186-2
2x = 184
Divide by 2
2x/2 = 184/2
x = 92
x+2 = 94
