Factoring binomials using the difference of squaresStep by Step Solution
Reformatting the input :
Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:
(1): "x1" was replaced by "x^1".
Rearrange:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :
-45-(9*(x^12))=0
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
Equation at the end of step 1 :
-45 - 32x12 = 0
Step 2 :
Step 3 :
Pulling out like terms :
3.1 Pull out like factors :
-9x12 - 45 = -9 • (x12 + 5)
Trying to factor as a Sum of Cubes :
3.2 Factoring: x12 + 5
Theory : A sum of two perfect cubes, a3 + b3 can be factored into :
(a+b) • (a2-ab+b2)
Proof : (a+b) • (a2-ab+b2) =
a3-a2b+ab2+ba2-b2a+b3 =
a3+(a2b-ba2)+(ab2-b2a)+b3=
a3+0+0+b3=
a3+b3
Check : 5 is not a cube !!
Ruling : Binomial can not be factored as the difference of two perfect cubes
Equation at the end of step 3 :
-9 • (x12 + 5) = 0
Step 4 :
Equations which are never true :
4.1 Solve : -9 = 0
This equation has no solution.
A a non-zero constant never equals zero.
Solving a Single Variable Equation :
4.2 Solve : x12+5 = 0
Subtract 5 from both sides of the equation :
x12 = -5
x = 12th root of (-5)
The equation has no real solutions. It has 12 imaginary, or complex solutions.
These solutions are x = 12th root of -5.00000
12 solutions were found :
These solutions are x = 12th root of -5.00000How did we do?
