36 is must be added to the expression x² + 12x to make it

perfect-square trinomial

Step-by-step explanation:

The perfect-square trinomial x² + 2ax + a² = (x + a)², then

1. The first term in the trinomial is square the 1st term in the bracket

2. The middle term in the trinomial is the product of 1st , 2nd

    terms of the bracket and 2

3. The 3rd term in the trinomial is square the 2nd term in the bracket

∵ The expression is x² + 12x

∵ We must add the 3rd term which make it perfect-square trinomial

- Divide 12x by 2 to find the product of the 1st term and 2nd term

  in the bracket

∵ 12x ÷ 2 = 6x

∴ The 1st term is x and the 2nd term is 6 of the bracket

∵ The 3rd term in the trinomial is square the 2nd term in the bracket

∴ The 3rd term in the trinomial is 6² = 36

∴ x² + 12x + 36 = (x + 6)²

36 is must be added to the expression x² + 12x to make it

. Write the following expression in factored form using the greatest common factor.<br> 50a3 + 10a2
Tanya [424]

The factors of  50a³  are  1,  2,  5,  10,  25,  50,
   and their products with a, a² and a³ .

The factors of  10a²  are  1,  2,  5,  10,
    and their products with 'a' and a² .

Their common factors are  1, 2, 5, 10,
       and their products with 'a' and a².

Their greatest common factor is  10a² .

(Another way to spot it, easily, is to remember this helpful factoid:

                 If the smaller number is a factor of the larger number,
                 then the smaller number is their greatest common factor.

Using the greatest common factor, then . . .

           50a³ + 10a²  =     10a²(5a + 1) .
