Answer:
360 I think
Step-by-step explanation:
Is known that
(a + b)² = a² + 2.a.b + b²
So:
(x + 4)² = x² + 2.x.4 + 4² = x² + 8x + 16
Answer:
The constant in this expression is 5 (btw, a constant is a number on its own)
You can make it easier by replacing x^n with another variable, factoring, then putting x^n back in the end.
Using exponent and algebra rules, rewrite x^2n - 2x^n + 1 as
(x^n)^2 - (2 x x^2) + 1
Then, let x^n = m.
m^2 - 2m + 1
Now factor that: (m - 1)^2
And now put x^n back: (x^n - 1)^2
1=650,000
2=270,000
