Answer:

15-9 will be greater

Step-by-step explanation:

Caroline wants to compare the expressions 15-9 and 9 (-15)

For us to know the result that is greater, we will have to check if the first value is less than or greater than the other. For example

If for a-b

a-b is greater if a>b

a-b is lesser if a<b

Given 15 - 9

Since 15 > 9, this means that 15-9 will be greater compare to 9-15

Factorize (X + 2 y)square - (2 x minus y) square​
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

- (x - 3y)(3x + y)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(x + 2y)² - (2x - y)² ← expand both parenthesis using FOIL

= x² + 4xy + 4y² - (4x² - 4xy + y²) ← distribute

= x² + 4xy + 4y² - 4x² + 4xy - y² ← collect like terms

= - 3x² + 8xy + 3y² ← factor out - 1 from each term

= - 1(3x² - 8xy - 3y²) ← factor the quadratic

Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the coefficient of the y² term which sum to give the coefficient of the xy- term.

product = 3 × - 3 = - 9 and sum = - 8

The factors are - 9 and + 1

Use these factors to split the xy- term

3x² - 9xy + xy - 3y² ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= 3x(x - 3y) + y(x - 3y) ← factor out (x - 3y) from each term

= (x - 3y)(3x + y)

Thus

(x + 2y)² - (2x - y)² = - (x - 3y)(3x + y)

Solve for x. 3x ^2 -4 = 8
LenKa [72]

Answer:

x = ±2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x ^2 -4 = 8

Add 4 to each side

3x ^2 -4+4 = 8+4

3x^2 =12

Divide each side by 3

3x^2 =12

3x^2/3 = 12/3

x^2 = 4

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = ±sqrt(4)

x = ±2
