Question

what is the square binomial of x2 + 8x + 16 ?

Answer 1

you mean, you are asked to factor this?

Answer 2

did you mean x^2 + 8 x + 16?

Answer 3

yes ^^

Answer 4

(x+4)(x+4)

Answer 5

yes i ask the factor of a binomial

Answer 6

to solve for x..obviously x=-4.

Answer 7

you can use ac factoring.

Answer 8

note, its in the form ax^2 + bx+c.

Answer 9

then, identify a and c, and multiply a and c.

Answer 10

then, identify two numbers where when you multiply you will get ac, and when you add you will get "b" (coefficient of the middle term).

Answer 11

then, rewrite the middle term using those numbers that you find. :))then, split into two groups, where each group has a gcf, then, factor out the gcf. then factor out the common factor. ta
that's it. :))

Answer 12

let me give you a similar example: x^2+4x+4.so, a = 1, b = 4, and c=4.

Answer 13

so, ac = 1*4=4, we need two numbers which when we multiply we get 4(ac result), and when we add, we get 4(b , coefficient of "x"). note that, 2*2 = 4, and 2 +2 = 4.

Answer 14

so, we will rewrite the middle terms using 2 and 2.so, x^2 +4x+4 = x^2+2x+2x+4.

Answer 15

grouping it, (x^2+2x)+(2x+4), factoring gcf: x(x+2)+2(x+2)

Answer 16

factoring out the common factor, thus: (x+2)(x+2), or (x+2)^2. that's it! :))
