Question

Select the factors of x2 − 10x + 25.

Answer 1

Answer:

(x-5)2

Step-by-step explanation:

you must solve the expression (x-5)2 as the form (a-b)2 = a2 -2ab + b2

So it becomes x2-10x+25

Answer 2

Answer: (x-5)(x-5) or (x-5)²

Step-by-step explanation:

(a-b)(a-b)= a² - 2ab + b²

→ x² - 10x - 25

→ √25 = 5

so a= x, b= 5

this gives us (x-5)(x-5)
