Question

Can anyone answer this with the steps please? (it’s factoring review in algebra 1) 28n² - 7

Answer 1

Answer:

n= -1/2 & 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

first factor out the greatest common factor which is 7

7(4n² - 1)

Then factor it further inside the parenthesis

7(2n+1)(2n-1)     (if you distribute you'll see that 7(2n+1)(2n-1)=7(4n² - 1) )

Then you set each part of the equation equal to 0

2n+1=0

2n= -1

n= -1/2

2n-1=0

2n= 1

n= 1/2
