x2 + 10x + 21 = (x + 3)(x + 7)
Plus or minus the base. If the base is X and you square it, you get X2. If you take the square root of that, you get Plus or Minus X. This is because X*X equals X2 and -X*-X also equals X2.
The quadratic expression x2+6x+8 when factorised equals (x+2)(x+4)
x2 + x - 30 = (x + 6)(x - 5)
x(x+4) equals x2 plus 4x
x2 + 10x + 21 = (x + 3)(x + 7)
Plus or minus the base. If the base is X and you square it, you get X2. If you take the square root of that, you get Plus or Minus X. This is because X*X equals X2 and -X*-X also equals X2.
The quadratic expression x2+6x+8 when factorised equals (x+2)(x+4)
x2 + x - 30 = (x + 6)(x - 5)
x(x+4) equals x2 plus 4x
x2 + 2
x2 + 2x - 15 = (x - 3)(x + 5)
if x2 + 7 = 37, then x2 = 29 and x = ±√29
X2 or 2 times x?
x = 2
If you have an equation of x2 plus x2, it is the same as saying 2 times x plus 2 times x. This can be written as 2x + 2x or x2 + x2. It is the same, then, as 4x. For example, if x equals 5: 2(5) + 2(5) = 10 + 10 = 20. 20 also equals 4(5).
(x + 6y)(x - 3y)
