Question

Algebra 2 Help please. ((x+1)^4 -1)

Answer 1

Your statement is incomplete. We have no instructions.

Answer 2

Simplify...

Answer 3

This is the difference of two squares


((x + 1)^2 + 1))((x + 1)^2 - 1)

the second one factors down further

((x + 1)^2 + 1)((x + 1) + 1)((x + 1) - 1)

Answer 4

((x + 1)^2 + 1) = (x + 1)(x + 1) + 1

x^2 + 2x + 1 + 1

(x^2 + 2x + 2)

Answer 5

The other two are ((x + 1) + 1) = (x + 2)
((x + 1) - 1) = x

Answer 6

So x(x + 2)(x^2 + 2x + 2)

Answer 7

I got x^4+4x^3+6x^2+4x...but i dont knoww..

Answer 8

I think it needs to be factored as I did above.

Answer 9

I dont understand how you did it.

Answer 10

These ones are harder to spot but it is basically a^2 - b^2.
(x+1)^4 is basically the square of (x+1)^2 and 1 you know can be squared to equal 1
