Question:-
Simplify: 4k – 2 + 3k2 – 5k + 6
(a) k2 + k +4
(c) 3k2 - 9k +4
(b) 3k2 – k +4
(d) 3k2 - 9k - 4
Answer:-
Step by Step Solution:-
Reformatting the input :
Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:
(1): "k2" was replaced by "k^2". 3 more similar replacement(s).
STEP 1:
Equation at the end of step 1
((((4•(k2))+(3•(k2)))-(7•(k2)))-5k2)+6
STEP 3:
Equation at the end of step 3:
((((4•(k2))+3k2)-7k2)-5k2)+6
STEP 4:
Equation at the end of step 4:
(((22k2 + 3k2) - 7k2) - 5k2) + 6
STEP 5:
Trying to factor as a Difference of Squares:
5.1 Factoring: 6-5k2
Theory : A difference of two perfect squares, A2 - B2 can be factored into (A+B) • (A-B)
Proof :
Note : AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.
Note : - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.
Check : 6 is not a square !!
Ruling : Binomial can not be factored as the
difference of two perfect squares
Final result :
