Question

Divide the following as directed:
(i) 4(x - 2)(x + 4)2 = 2(x - 2).

Answer 1

Answer:

4x² + 7x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

• 4*2( x - 2 ) ( x + 4 ) = 2x - 4
• ( 8x - 16) ( x +4 ) = 2x - 4
• (8x² + 32x) - (16x - 64)= 2x - 4
• 8x² + 32x - 16x - 64 = 2x - 4
• 8x² + 16x - 64 = 2x - 4
• taking 8 in common.And 2 in common
• 8(x² + 2x - 8) = 2(x - 2)
• cutting off 8 and 2 from either side.
• 4x² + 8x - 32 = x -2
• 4x² + 8x - x = - 2 + 32
• 4x² + 7x = 30
