Answer:
Part A: 3x²(x⁸ - 16)
Part B: 3x²(x² - 2)(x² + 2) (x² - 2x + 2)(x² + 2x + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A. Factor out the greatest common factor
3x¹⁰ - 48 x²
= 3x²(x⁸ - 16)
Part B. Factor the expression completely
(i) Factor the difference of squares
x⁸ - 16
= (x⁴ - 4)(x⁴ + 4)
= (x² - 2)(x² + 2)(x⁴ + 4)
3x¹⁰ - 48 x² = 3x²(x² - 2)(x² + 2)(x⁴ + 4)
(ii) Factor the sum of squares
Use the Sophie Germain Identity to factor x⁴ + 4.
x⁴ + 4
= (x²)² + 2² (Still a sum of squares)
= (x² + 2)² - 4x² (Factor this as a difference of squares)
= (x² + 2 - 2x)(x² + 2 + 2x)
3x¹⁰ - 48 x² = 3x² (x² - 2)(x² + 2) (x² - 2x + 2)(x² + 2x + 2)
Answer:
Hi
Step-by-step explanation:
Two integers are relatively prime (or coprime) if there is no integer greater than one that divides them both (that is, their greatest common divisor is one). For example, 12 and 13 are relatively prime, but 12 and 14 are not.
Answer: the expression that is equivalent to that is 42
