Question

Factor completely x2 − 8x 16. (x 4)(x 4) (x − 4)(x − 4) (x 4)(x − 4) (x − 2)(x − 8)

Answer 1

I hope this helps you

Answer 2

(x² - 8x + 16) = (x-4) (x-4)

Explanation:

We have to factorize the given expression

(x²-8x+16)

(x² - 8x + 16 ) = x² - 2(4x) + 4²

= ( x-4)²

[As we know (a-b)² = a² + b² - 2ab]

so (x² - 8x + 16) = (x-4) (x-4) is the factored form of the given expression.
