What is the complete factorization of 8x2 − 8x + 2?


A. 2(4x − 1)2

B. 8(x − 1)(x + 1)

C. 2(2x − 1)2

D. 2(x − 2)(x + 2)


Sagot :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

8x^2 - 8x + 2

2(4x^2 - 4x + 1)

2(2x - 1)(2x - 1) or 2(2x - 1)^2

answer is C

The complete factorization of [tex]8x^2 - 8x + 2[/tex] will be  [tex]2(2x-1)^2[/tex] .

What is factorization ?

Factorization is a process consists of writing a number or another mathematical object as a product of several factors solving it into other factors.

We have,

[tex]8x^2 - 8x + 2[/tex]

Using the mid term splitting method;

[tex]=8x^2-4x-4x+2[/tex]

[tex]=4x(2x-1)-2(2x-1)[/tex]

[tex]=(4x-2)(2x-1)[/tex]

[tex]=2(2x-1)(2x-1)[/tex]

[tex]=2(2x-1)^2[/tex]

So, the factorization of the given expression is given in option [tex](c)[/tex]  i.e.   [tex]2(2x-1)^2[/tex] .

Hence, we can say that the complete factorization of [tex]8x^2 - 8x + 2[/tex] will be  [tex]2(2x-1)^2[/tex] .
