Question

u2 - (2)(8) + 82
u squared minus 2 times 8 + 82.
Can someone help figure out how to factor this further?

Answer 1

Are you sure your question is right ???

Answer 2

I think you are missing \(u\) somewhere in your question...

Answer 3

Is not it like this :

\[u^2 - (2)(8)u +82\]

Answer 4

u2 - 16u + 64 = u2 - (2)(8) + 82
they are saying the answer is = (u - 8)2 or (u - 8) squared
U squared minus 16U + 64 = U squared - 2 times 8 + 8 squared

Answer 5

I am not understanding this at all

Answer 6

Sorry I cant figure out how to add equations thanks anyway

Answer 7

\[u^{2} - 16u + 64 \implies u^2 - 8u - 8u + 64 \implies u(u-8) - 8(u - 8)\]

\[\implies \color{blue}{(u-8)^2}\]

Answer 8

Gotta go....
