Step 1 :
Equation at the end of step 1 :
(2x213 • x) - 7Step 2 :
Trying to factor as a Difference of Squares :
2.1 Factoring: 2x214-7
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 : 2 is not a square !!
Ruling : Binomial can not be factored as the
difference of two perfect squares
Final result :
2x214 - 7
