Solution - Simplification or other simple results
(5x+1)*(1-5x)
Step by Step Solution
Step 1 :
Equation at the end of step 1 :
1 - 52x2
Step 2 :
Trying to factor as a Difference of Squares :
2.1 Factoring: 1-25x2
Theory : A difference of two perfect squares, A2 - B2 can be factored into (A+B) • (A-B)
Proof : (A+B) • (A-B) =
A2 - AB + BA - B2 =
A2 - AB + AB - B2 =
A2 - B2
Note : AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.
Note : - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.
Check : 1 is the square of 1
Check : 25 is the square of 5
Check : x2 is the square of x1
Factorization is : (1 + 5x) • (1 - 5x)
Final result :
(5x + 1) • (1 - 5x)
