Hello!
We can use the difference of square method.
<h2>Difference Of Squares (DOS)</h2>The formula for the DOS is
It is a simple way to factor polynomials.
The criteria:
- Has to begin and end with a perfect square
- The operation has to be subtraction
Begins with a perfect square (x² * x²) and ends with a perfect square (4 * 4)
Warning! Watch out, there may be another DOS!
is another DOS
The x² + 4 is not a DOS because the operation is addition.
The final factored form is
Answer:
A linear function is written as:
y = a*x + b
Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
An exponential equation is written as:
y = A*(r)^x
Where A is the initial quantity and r is the rate of growth.
If a and A are both positives, the similar characteristic of both types of functions is that as x increases, then the value of y will also increase. Then both functions are increasing functions.
They are different in how they increase, while a linear function increases at a constant rate, an exponential function increases slow at the beginning and really fast as x increases, as you can see in the image below where we compare the two types of functions, the green one is the linear function, and the blue one is the exponential function.
