Factor polynomial $$ 9x^{2}-4 $$
Answer
$$ 9x^{2}-4 = ( 3x-2 )( 3x+2 ) $$
Explanation
Rewrite $ 9x^{2}-4 $ as:
$$ 9x^{2}-4 = (3x)^2 - (2)^2 $$Now we can apply the difference of squares formula.
$$ I^2 - II^2 = (I - II)(I + II) $$After putting $ I = 3x $ and $ II = 2 $ , we have:
$$ 9x^{2}-4 = (3x)^2 - (2)^2 = ( 3x-2 ) ( 3x+2 ) $$This page was created using
