Other Ways to Solve
Simplification or other simple resultsStep by Step Solution
Step 1 :
Equation at the end of step 1 :
(8 • (x3)) - (7x316 • x3)Step 2 :
Equation at the end of step 2 :
23x3 - 7x319
Step 3 :
Step 4 :
Pulling out like terms :
4.1 Pull out like factors :
8x3 - 7x319 = x3 • (8 - 7x316)
Trying to factor as a Difference of Squares :
4.2 Factoring: 8 - 7x316
Theory : A difference of two perfect squares, A2 - B2 can be factored into (A+B) • (A-B)
Proof : (A+B) • (A-B) =
A2 - AB + BA - B2 =
A2 - AB + AB - B2 =
A2 - B2
Note : AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.
Note : - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.
Check : 8 is not a square !!
Ruling : Binomial can not be factored as the
difference of two perfect squares
Final result :
x3 • (8 - 7x316)
