Question

Bill wants to factor x^2 + 8x + 16 by grouping; however, Sara says it is a special product and can factor a different way. Using complete sentences, explain how both methods will result in the same factors.

Answer 1

it can be like that in the following equation:

Answer 2

\[x ^{2}+4x+4x+16\]

Answer 3

\[x(x+4)+4(x+4)\]

Answer 4

then by taking common outside we'll get:

Answer 5

\[(x+4)(x+4)\]

Answer 6

the final is in above equation where we get the 2 factors of your given question.. but here the 2 factors are same

Answer 7

got it or not???
