cant sorry a little advanced.

@hartnn
hartnn (hartnn):
just put '4x-x^2' in place of 'x' in G(x)
what u get ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
\[\sqrt{4-(4x-x^2)}\]

correct, now simplify the quantity under sqrt sign....
and note that you get a perfect square inside!
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah like this \[\sqrt{4-4x+x^2}\]
after that I don't know
hartnn (hartnn):
ok,
so lets try to factor x^2-4x+4
tell me 2 numbers whose sum is -4 and product =4 ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you mean like this
(x-2)(x-2)
hartnn (hartnn):
absolutely!
thats \(\Large (x-2)^2\)

hartnn (hartnn):
so, \(\Large \sqrt{a^2}=|a|\)
what about \(\Large \sqrt{(x-2)^2}=... ?\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
x-2
hartnn (hartnn):
yes, more precisely its \(\Large |x-2|\).
:)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok :D
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and this is the final answer

hartnn (hartnn):
yup
hartnn (hartnn):
G(4x-x^2 ) = |x-2|
