Question

factorize 4x^2+9-12x-a^2-b^2+2ab

Answer 1

Answer:

(4x2 – 12x + 9) – (a2 + b2 – 2ab)

= (2x – 3)2 – (a – b)2

= [(2x – 3) + (a – b)] [(2x – 3) – (a – b)]

= (2x – 3 + a – b)(2x – 3 – a + b)

Answer 2

Answer:

(2x – 3 + a – b)(2x – 3 – a + b)

Step-by-step explanation:

(4x2 – 12x + 9) – (a2 + b2 – 2ab)

= (2x – 3)2 – (a – b)2

= [(2x – 3) + (a – b)] [(2x – 3) – (a – b)]

= (2x – 3 + a – b)(2x – 3 – a + b)
