Question

Factor this polynomial completely. x^2-81

Answer 1

The answer to your question is (x+9)(x-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite 81 as 92

x2−92

Since both terms are perfect squares, factor using the difference of squares formula, a2−b2=(a+b)(a−b)

where a=x and b=9

(x+9)(x−9)

Hope this helped you out:)

Answer 2

Answer:

a=x and b=9

(x+9)(x−9)

Explanation:

Since both terms are perfect squares, factor using the difference of squares formula, a2−b2=(a+b)(a−b)
