First you can apply the a²-b² = (a+b)(a-b) theorem, you'll get:
(p²)² - 9² = (p²+9)(p²-9), but that's not all, you can apply it again on the last factor:
(p²+9)(p²-3²) = (p²+9)(p+3)(p-3)
The first factor cannot be simplified like that, so that's the furthest factorization. So answer (3) is the right one.
Answer:
GCF: 2x
Factored: 2x(x+3)(x-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Choice a is a good one by the way
Answer:
1. -6
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)=x²-9
g(x)= x-3
1. (f+g)(2) =
(2²-9)+(2-3) = (4-9)+(2-3) = (-5)+(-1)= -6
Slope-Intercept form - y = 4
