Which value of a would make the following expression completely factored

Answer:

A)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the expression (x^2 - a^2) can be written as (x-a)(x+a). So an expression of this type: (x^2 - a^2) wouldn't be completely factored because it could be factorized even more.

So we know that 36 = 6^2, 49= 7^2 and 81 = 9^2. So if we choose any of these options (Option B, C and D) it wouldn't be completely factored.

The correct is the option A, given that if a=12, it wouldn't be a perfect square, so it would be completely factored.

[25 POINTS] The approximate change in the value of f(x) = sqrt(2(x-1)) at x = 3 using differentials with dx = 0.01 is
otez555 [7]

Answer:

\frac{1}{200}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Find the derivative of the function when x=3</u>

<u />y=\sqrt{2(x-1)}

\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2(x-1)}}

\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2(3-1)}}

\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2(2)}}

\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{4}}

\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{2}

Since the change in the value of the function is dy and we know that the change in x is dx=0.01, then we have:

\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{2}

dy=\frac{1}{2}dx

dy=\frac{1}{2}(0.01)

dy=\frac{1}{200}

Therefore, the 2nd option is correct
