One of the factors of g2 − 28g + 196 is a. g-7 b. g-14 c. g+14 d. g+7
\(g^{2}-28g+196=g^{2}-14g-14g+196=g(g-14)-14(g-14)= \\ \\ (g-14)(g-14)=(g-14)^{2}\)
P.S :>
\((a-b)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2}\)
==================================
"Associate with people who are likely to improve you."
We can use this formula:
\(\sf{x^2-2xy+y^2 =(x-y)(x-y)=(x-y)^{2}}\)
\(g^2 - 28g + 196 \to (g)^2 - 2(14)(g) + (14)^2\)
that means:
\(x = g, y = 14\)
So plugging that into the formula, you get:
\(g^2 - 28g + 196= (g-14)(g-14)= (g-14)^2\)
