|x-3|
the difference between a number and 3 is
As for example: x^2-9 = (x-3)(x+3) when factored is the difference of two squares
10(x-3)
3(x - y)
3 (x - y)
The expression x - 3 is simply (3 - x) multipled by -1
1 x 60 difference 59 2 x 30 difference 28 3 x 20 difference 17 4 x 15 difference 11 5 x 12 difference 7 6 x 10 difference 4 Are you sure the question is correct?
(x + 3)(x - 3)
(3*x)+4
Well, darling, the difference between x-3 and 3-x is simply the order of subtraction. In x-3, you're subtracting 3 from x, while in 3-x, you're subtracting x from 3. It's like deciding whether you want to take away $3 from your $10 bill or subtract your $10 bill from $3 – either way, you're left with a mess in your wallet.
This is a difference of two square, so you can apply the factoring rule for the difference of two squares.
