can you guys help me with this problem please and thank you 16ax + 4x2 +16a2
Julio....I'm assuming that you want to factor this:
16ax + 4x^2 +16a^2 ...if so....pull out the greatest common factor, first = 4
4 [ 4ax + x^2 + 4a^2] rearrange the inside terms
4 [ x^2 + 4ax + 4a^2] factor the inside expression
4 [ x + 2a] [x + 2a] =
4 [ x + 2a] ^2
And that's it......!!!
