2(x+8)(x−8)

solomonzelman · Answer

1)   factor out of 2.
2)   use a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)  NOTE that in your case a=x and b=8.

solomonzelman · Answer

@thewonderfuladele if you were showing your work on similar questions and still needed to do this now, that means the user isn't taking anything out of the learning that you try to provide.

correct me if im wrong √2xˆ2= √128 leading to 2x= 11.313 which is around x=5.66

anonymous · Answer

No, @KTA_Hype , I's suppose to look like the first answer. I'm factoring out the problems.
