Answer:

The answer is 429 = 3×11×13.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to divide by prime number :

429 ÷ 3 = 143

143 ÷ 11 = 13

Answer:

3×11×13

Step-by-step explanation:

Start dividing by prime numbers. Since the number is even two won't work so next is three. If you divide 429 by 3 you get 143.
You continue doing this with primes going up (5, 7, 11, 13, etc.) until you get to the final prime. 5 and 7 don't work if you try dividing them by 143 individually so next up is 11. If you divide 11 by 143 you get 13 which is also a prime number.
Therefore, 3×11×13 is a product of prime factors.

Express p in terms of q if

Irina-Kira [14]

$p=x^2+\dfrac{1}{x^2}\\\\p=\dfrac{x^4}{x^2}+\dfrac{1}{x^2}\\\\p=\dfrac{x^4+1}{x^2}\qquad(*)$

$q=x+\dfrac{1}{x}\\\\q=\dfrac{x^2}{x}+\dfrac{1}{x}\\\\q=\dfrac{x^2+1}{x}\qquad\text{square both sides}\\\\q^2=\left(\dfrac{x^2+1}{x}\right)^2\\\\q^2=\dfrac{(x^2+1)^2}{x^2}\qquad\text{use}\ \ (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2\\\\q^2=\dfrac{(x^2)^2+2(x^2)(1)+1^2}{x^2}\\\\q^2=\dfrac{x^4+2x^2+1}{x^2}\\\\q^2=\dfrac{x^4+1}{x^2}+\dfrac{2x^2}{x^2}\\\\q^2=\dfrac{x^4+1}{x^2}+2\qquad\text{subtract 2 from both sides}\\\\q^2-2=\dfrac{x^4+1}{x^2}\\\\\text{From (*) we have}\\\\\boxed{p=q^2-2}$
