Factor polynomial $$ 4x^{2}-49 $$
Answer
$$ 4x^{2}-49 = ( 2x-7 )( 2x+7 ) $$
Explanation
Rewrite $ 4x^{2}-49 $ as:
$$ 4x^{2}-49 = (2x)^2 - (7)^2 $$Now we can apply the difference of squares formula.
$$ I^2 - II^2 = (I - II)(I + II) $$After putting $ I = 2x $ and $ II = 7 $ , we have:
$$ 4x^{2}-49 = (2x)^2 - (7)^2 = ( 2x-7 ) ( 2x+7 ) $$This page was created using
