Solution - Simplification or other simple results
(4x+3)*(4x-3)
Step by Step Solution
Step 1 :
Equation at the end of step 1 :
24x2 - 9
Step 2 :
Trying to factor as a Difference of Squares :
2.1 Factoring: 16x2-9
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 : 16 is the square of 4
Check : 9 is the square of 3
Check : x2 is the square of x1
Factorization is : (4x + 3) • (4x - 3)
Final result :
(4x + 3) • (4x - 3)
