Question

HELP!!!!! Consider the polynomial 9x2 – 16. What is the value of ac? What is the value of b? What two numbers multiply to get ac and add to get b? The factored form of 9x2 – 16 is .

Answer 1

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

9x^2 - 16

Comparing this with the standard form

ax^2 + bx + c

ac = 9*-16 = -144

b = 0

-12 and 12 multiply to get ac and add to get b.

Factored form is

(3x - 4)(3x + 4).
