Answer:

[(2x)² - 3²] = (2x-3) (2x+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is ( 4x² - 9)

We have to tell the identity to factorize the given expression.

We can rewrite the expression as [ (2x)² - 3² ]

To factor if we will use the identity

[a² - b² = (a-b) (a+b) ]

so expression will become

[(2x)² - 3²] = (2x-3) (2x+3)

You cannot factor it, so there is no simplification. The Constants "4" and "9" do not share a common factor, therefore, you cannot simplify it. However, if it was a number such as "8" replacing "9", then you can simplify by doing:

4(x^2 - 2) = 4x^2-9

800 hm = _____ cm 8 0.08 8,000,000 80,000

To solve this conversion factor problem we are going to multiply our original quantity 800hm by conversion factors (expressed as fractions) in order to cancel units until we get centimeters:
We know that 1 hectometer= 100 meters, so our first conversion factor expressed as a fraction is $\frac{100m}{1hm}$
We also now that 1 meter = 100 centimeters, so our second one is $\frac{100cm}{1m}$

Now that we have our fractions, lets multiply our original quantity by them to get our answer in the required units:
$800hm( \frac{100m}{1hm} )( \frac{100cm}{1m})=8000000cm$

We can conclude that 800hm are 8,000,000cm

in an isosceles triangle that is not equilateral, the angle between the congruent sides is called a _______angle. a.leg b.vertex

Gelneren [198K]

we know that

An isosceles triangle is a triangle with two congruent sides. These congruent sides are called legs. The point at which these legs meet is called the vertex point of the isosceles triangle, and the angle formed by the legs is called the vertex angle. The other two angles of the triangle are called base angles.

see the attached figure to better understand the question

therefore

the answer is

Vertex angle

When number is multiplied by 4 subtracting from 68, the result obtained is the same as three times the sum of the number and 4 f

Artemon [7]

Answer:

Let the no.be X

when multiplied by 4 = 4X

68-4X=3(X+4)

68-4X=3X+12

collecting like terms together,

7X=56

therefore; X=8

hence ,the number is 8.
