HELP - THIS IS ON MY TEST TOMORROW:

Factor Completely:

1. r^2t^2+10rt+25

2. 49m^2-14m+1

3. 4a^2-b^2

anonymous · Answer

for the first one, write it out as: $\large (rt)^2+10rt + 25 $
so notice it looks like this:  $\large x^2+10x + 25 $
which can be factored:  $\large x^2+10x + 25 = (x+5)(x+5)=(x+5)^2$
so the original problem is actually: $\large (rt + 5)^2 $
