@DivineSolar
OpenStudy (kendricklamar2014):
\[(x-4)^2 = (x+-4)(x+-4)\]
OpenStudy (juliebeans):
So..Is that what you simplfed to?
OpenStudy (kendricklamar2014):
yes, but you can simplify it even more
OpenStudy (kendricklamar2014):
\[(x+-4)(x+-4) = (x)(x) + (x)(-4)+(-4)(x)+(-4)(-4)\]

Can We Combine the x's on each side?
OpenStudy (kendricklamar2014):
\[= x^2 - 4x-4x+16\]
OpenStudy (kendricklamar2014):
What is:\[-4x - 4x = ?\]
OpenStudy (juliebeans):
Then combine 4x?
OpenStudy (kendricklamar2014):
Yes ^

B. b ² − 27
C. b ² − 6b − 27
D. b ² + 12b – 27
OpenStudy (kendricklamar2014):
