Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, please consider the following.

a)

(2x-2)^2 - (x+4)^2 \\\\=(2x-2-(x+4))(2x-2+x+4)\\\\=(2x-2-x-4)(3x+2)\\\\=\boxed{(x-6)(3x+2)}

b)

(3x+4) (3x-4)\\\\=(3x)^2-4^2\\\\=\boxed{9x^2-16}

Thank you.

Add the following polynomials, then place the answer in the proper location on the grid. Write your answer in descending powers
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

x⁴ + x³ + 4x² - 5x

Step-by-step explanation:

The polynomials given in the question are:

x⁴ - 3x + 1

4x² - 2x + 8

x³ - 9

We have to add all them

First write all the polynomial in the summation form:

(x⁴ - 3x + 1) + (4x² - 2x + 8) + (x³ - 9)

Open the brackets:

x⁴ - 3x + 1 + 4x² - 2x + 8 + x³ - 9

Group together the similar terms

(x⁴) + (x³) + (4x²) + (-3x -2x) + (1 + 8 - 9)

Finding the sum in brackets:

x⁴ + x³ + 4x² + (-5x) + (0)

x⁴ + x³ + 4x² - 5x

Note that the sum is in descending powers of x
