Answer: True
Solution:
Rearrange the equation to the LHS:
[x^2 + 8x + 16] · [x^2 – 8x + 16] - (x^2 – 16)^2 = 0
Factoring x^2+8x+16
x^2 - 4x - 4x - 16
= (x-4) • (x-4)
= = (x+4)2
So now we have an equation
(x + 4)^2 • (x - 4)^2 - (x^2 - 16)^2 = 0
Step 2: Evaluate the following:
(x+4)2 = x^2+8x+16
(x-4)2 = x^2-8x+16
(x^2-16)2 = x^4-32x^2+256
(x^2+8x+16) (x^2-8x+16 ) - (x^4-32x^2+256 )
0 = 0
Hence True
Simpe interest rate = PRT/100
— ( principal x rate x time ) / 100
$3,000 is the principal
3 years is the time
2% is the rate
so, PRT/100
(3,000 x 3 x 2) / 100
= $180
Answer : $180
