Answer» Answer: 7a2+14ab+7b2 Final RESULT : 7 • (a + b)2 Reformatting the input : Changes made to your input should not affect the solution: (1): "b2" was REPLACED by "b^2". 1 more similar replacement(s). Step by step solution : Step 1 : Equation at the end of step 1 : ((7 • (A2)) + 14ab) + 7b2 Step 2 : Equation at the end of step 2 : (7a2 + 14ab) + 7b2 Step 3 : Step 4 : Pulling out like terms : 4.1 Pull out like factors : 7a2 + 14ab + 7b2 = 7 • (a2 + 2ab + b2) Trying to factor a multi variable polynomial : 4.2 FACTORING a2 + 2ab + b2 Try to factor this multi-variable trinomial using trial and error Found a factorization : (a + b)•(a + b) Detecting a perfect square : 4.3 a2 +2ab +b2 is a perfect square It factors into (a+b)•(a+b) which is another way of writing (a+b)2 How to RECOGNIZE a perfect square trinomial: • It has three terms • Two of its terms are perfect squares themselves • The remaining term is twice the product of the square roots of the other two terms Final result : 7 • (a + b)2 Processing ends successfully Step-by-step explanation: |
