Factor completely x^4-17x^2+16​
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

(x - 1) (x + 1) (x - 4) (x + 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

actor the following:

x^4 - 17 x^2 + 16

x^4 - 17 x^2 + 16 = (x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16:

(x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16

The factors of 16 that sum to -17 are -1 and -16. So, (x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16 = (x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 16):

(x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 16)

x^2 - 16 = x^2 - 4^2:

(x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 4^2)

Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 4^2 = (x - 4) (x + 4):

(x - 4) (x + 4) (x^2 - 1)

x^2 - 1 = x^2 - 1^2:

(x^2 - 1^2) (x - 4) (x + 4)

Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 1^2 = (x - 1) (x + 1):

Answer: (x - 1) (x + 1) (x - 4) (x + 4)

What is the solution to the system of equations below? -4x+6y=-18 and y=-2x+21
Verdich [7]

Answer:

x=9 and y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your system by substitution.

−4x+6y=−18 and y=−2x+21

Rewrite equations:

y=−2x+21;−4x+6y=−18

Step: Solve  y=−2x+21for y:

y=−2x+21

Step: Substitute−2x+21foryin−4x+6y=−18:

−4x+6y=−18

−4x+6(−2x+21)=−18

−16x+126=−18(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−16x+126+−126=−18+−126(Add -126 to both sides)

−16x=−144

−16x

−16

=

−144

−16

(Divide both sides by -16)

x=9

Step: Substitute9forxiny=−2x+21:

y=−2x+21

y=(−2)(9)+21

y=3(Simplify both sides of the equation)

Answer:

x=9 and y=3
