X^2 - x - 6
Let's factorise. So we pick two numbers such that their product gives (-6) and
adding them up gives us (-1)
Our choice pick is -3 and 2
So we have: X^2 - 3x + 2x - 6 = 0
Factorimg we have X(X - 3) + 2( X - 3) = 0
So (X - 3) and (X + 2) are the solution to the equation.
Hence my answer is X - 3 and X + 2. None of the option applies.

Write 9− 16x⁴ as the product of two factors.

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

The two factors will be $=(3+4x^2)\ and\ (3-4x^2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given the equation $9-16x^4$

We know the algebraic equation $a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)$

As $9-16x^4$ can be written as $3^2-(4x^2)^2$ , as square of 3 is 9 and square of $4x^2$ is $16x^4$

So $9-16x^4=3^2-(4x^2)^=(3+4x^2)(3-4x^2)$

So the two factors will be $=(3+4x^2)\ and\ (3-4x^2)$
