Factorize 4x^3 -8x^2- 12x

Step-by-step explanation:

4x³ - 8x² - 12x = 4x ( x² - 2x - 3)

                       = 4x (x² + x - 3x - 3*1)

                       = 4x [ x(x + 1) - 3(x +1)]

                       = 4x [ (x +1) (x - 3)]

                       = 4x  (x + 1)(x-3)

4x^3 -8x^2- 12x

Taking common4 x

4X(x²-2x-3)

Doing middle term factorization

4x(x²-3x+x-3)

4x(x(x-3)+1(x-3))

4x(x-3)(x+1) is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

then, the surface area of the sphere shown in the image is: 256π sq. units!

step-by-step explanation:

the lateral surface area of a sphere is 2πrh where h=2r.

then:

surface area = 4πr^2.

in this case, r=8 units ⇒ surface area = 4π(8 units)^2. = 256π sq. units!

then, the surface area of the sphere shown in the image is: 256π sq. units!

it's both, now can you answer my most recent question?
