Which is a factor of 144 − 49x2? 12 - 7x2 72 – 7x2 12 – 7x 72 + 7x

I only asked this question so you guys would know the other answer is wrong i took the test and this is the answer

Respuesta :

For this case we have the following expression:

[tex] 144 - 49x ^ 2
[/tex]

We can rewrite the expression by factoring

Rewriting the expression we have:

[tex] - (7x-12) (7x + 12)
[/tex]

Then, using the distributive property for the negative sign we have:

[tex] (12-7x) (7x + 12)
[/tex]

Thus, we have that one of the factors of the given expression is:

12-7x

Answer:

A factor of the given expression is:

12-7x

option 3

Answer: Option 3(C)
