Answer: -6√2
Explanation: You’ll have to find where the original product can be rooted. 36 & 2. 36 is a perfect square, so it becomes 6.
Then 6 is on the outside, while two is inside.
Don’t forget the negative.
The square root of 144x^2 = 12 x
and square root of + 81 = 9 or -9
if this polynomial were a perfect square then its factors would be
(12x - 9)(12x - 9)
but its not a perfect squre because (12x - 9)(12x - 9) = 144x^2 - 216x + 81.
I believe it’s 12. But I’m not sure
Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
100 ---> 96 is -4
96 ---> 104 is +8
104 ---> 88 is -16
88 ---> 120 is +32
120 ---> 56 is -64
So first we go down by 4, then up by 8, then down 16, then up 32, then finally down 64.
The pattern of numbers is: -4, +8, -16, +32, -64
Notice it's the powers of 2:
2^2 = 4
2^3 = 8
2^4 = 16
2^5 = 32
2^6 = 64
each term doubles. Also each term alternates in sign. One is positive, then the next is negative and so on.
The last difference is -64, which doubles to -128. Change the sign to positive to get +128
Add 128 to the last term of 56 to get
128+56 = 184
Therefore, the final answer is 184
