Hello!

Answer:


\Large \boxed{\sf (12t+7)(12t-7)}

Explanation:

→ We want to factorize this expression:


\sf 144t^2 - 49

→ Our expression is equal to:


\sf (12t)^2 - 7^2

→ Let's use the difference of two squares:


\sf a^2 - b^2 = (a+b)(a-b)

In our expression:


\sf a = 12t\\b = 7

→ Let's apply this formula:


\boxed{\sf (12t+7)(12t-7)}

Conclusion:

The expression 144t² - 49 is equal to (12t + 7)(12t - 7).

Answer:

there is nothing to solve, we can factorize

144t²-49 =a²-b² that we factor (a-b)(a+b)

a²= 144t², a = 12t

b² = 49, b= 7

144t² -49 = (12t-7)(12t+7)

we can solve 144t² -49 =0 but not ask in the statement

(12t-7)(12t+7)=0

12t-7=0⇔12t=7⇔t=7/12

(12t+7)=0⇔12t=-7⇔t=-7/12
