Question

which of these is a factor of x-16 ---x,x-4,x+4,x-8,x+8,none of these
You may or may not choose more than one.
Thank you

Answer 1

Answer:

None of these

Answer 2

Answer:

None of these are a factor of x-16

Step-by-step explanation:

What are factors?

They are basically multipliers of the given value/values.

And are always applicable for linear equations.

Which in this question is not the case.

Given:

multipliers like x, x-4, x+4, x-8, x+8

Solution:

But, here

x-16 can't be factored

If the question is correct, the answer will be none of the above.

{But,

if the question meant x²-16

Then the factors will be:

As we know,

                                  a²-b²= (a-b)(a+b)

In the similar manner,x²-16=(x-4)(x+4)

So, the factors would be (x-4)(x+4)}
