Well the square root of a number is a number times its self equaling the number you're getting the square root of. For example:
<span>√ 25
</span>
To get sqrt of 25 we need to find a number times its self that equals 25. Lets try 8.
8 x 8 = 64
Well thats much too high, We'll try a lower number.
4 x 4 = 16
Just a little higher.
5 x 5 = 25
Since 5 times itself equals 25 that makes it the sqrt.
So, the √ 25 is 5.
Answer: The Expression is Equivalent, However, NOT completely factored.
Step-by-step explanation:
3x^2 - 12
Following:
3 ( x^2 - 4 )
Factor:
3x^2 - 12
Factor Out Common Term 3:
3 ( x^2 - 4 ) = 3 (x^2 - 4 )
Factor:
x^2 - 4
( x + 2 ) ( x - 2 )
Answer:
3 ( x + 2) ( x - 2)
Hence, The Expression is Equivalent, However, Wasn't Completely Factored.
Hope that helps!
your answer would be c) 9
