Answer:
f your number is x, then the difference between that number and 8 would be x-8. Twice that is 2(x-8)
Three times the sum of the number and 3 would be 3(x+3). So, you get the equation:
2(x-8)=3(x+3)
2x-16=3x+9
x=-25
A. (x + 2)²(x - 2)²
Step-by-step explanation:
x⁴ - 8x² + 16 =
(x² - 4)(x² - 4) =
(x - 2)(x + 2)(x - 2)(x + 2) =
(x - 2)²(x + 2)²
