Answer:
1 .4x2-9= 2x+3,2x-3
2 .16x2-1=4x-1,4x+1
3 .16x2-4=4(2x+1)(2x-1)
4 .4x2-1=(2x+1)(2x-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
16x² − 1 = (4x − 1)(4x + 1) ; 16x² − 4 = 4(2x + 1)(2x − 1); 4x² − 1 = (2x + 1)(2x − 1) ;
4x² − 9 = (2x + 3)(2x − 3)
16x² − 1 is the difference of squares. This is because 16x² is a perfect square, as is 1. To find the factors of the difference of squares, take the square root of each square; one factor will be the sum of these and the other will be the difference.
The square root of 16x² is 4x and the square root of 1 is 1; this gives us (4x-1)(4x+1).
16x² − 4 is also the difference of squares. The difference of 16x² is 4x and the square root of 4 is 2; this gives us (4x-2)(4x+2). However, we can also factor a 2 out of each of these binomials; this gives us
2(2x-1)(2)(2x+1) = 2(2)(2x-1)(2x+1) = 4(2x-1)(2x+1)
4x² − 1 is also the difference of squares. The square root of 4x² is 2x and the square root of 1 is 1; this gives us (2x-1)(2x+1).
4x² − 9 is also the difference of squares. The square root of 4x² is 2x and the square root of 9 is 3; this gives us (2x-3)(2x+3).
ANSWER: x = 1/3
WORKING OUT:
2 times x times 3 = 2
6 times x = 2
x = 1/3
18. It is 18 because when you multiply 2x2 plus 4 x2 plus 2 x3 you get 4 plus 8 plus 6 = 18
Answer:
2.5 %
Step-by-step explanation:
The simple interest formula is
I = Prt
Data:
I = $75
P = $600
t = 5 yr
Calculation:
75 = 600 × r × 5
75 = 3000 r
Divide each side by 3000
r = 75/3000 = 0.025 = 2.5 % APR
The annual percentage rate is 2.5 %.
