umm so i dont understand the language of the question

#

seems like function is f(x) = x²+4 and u nred to show f(-2)+f(2)=4f(0)

valid comet Mar 30, 2024, 1:22 PM

#

I solved that problem

south vector Mar 30, 2024, 1:22 PM

#

ohk

#

anything else i can help with?

valid comet Mar 30, 2024, 1:22 PM

#

Now i have this

#

I was thinking to get rid of parenthesis

log

valid comet Mar 30, 2024, 1:23 PM

#

On the second one

#

By using

#

(a-b)²= a²-2ab+b²

south vector Mar 30, 2024, 1:23 PM

#

yeah that works

H²-27=H²-6H+9

#

which implies 6H=36

#

H=6

#

@valid comet u get it??

valid comet Mar 30, 2024, 1:26 PM

#

No, what does H mean?

south vector Mar 30, 2024, 1:26 PM

#

isnt that the variable

valid comet Mar 30, 2024, 1:27 PM

#

No

south vector Mar 30, 2024, 1:27 PM

#

or was it x?

valid comet Mar 30, 2024, 1:27 PM

#

Wait

#

It's an X

south vector Mar 30, 2024, 1:27 PM

#

oh

valid comet Mar 30, 2024, 1:27 PM

#

I'm still in highschool

south vector Mar 30, 2024, 1:27 PM

#

just assume it to be x.

south vector Mar 30, 2024, 1:27 PM

#

valid comet I'm still in highschool

same

#

#

ig this would help

I see so you removed the parenthesis from the first one but the second one what formula did you use? To remove the parenthesis?

south vector Mar 30, 2024, 1:31 PM

#

valid comet I see so you removed the parenthesis from the first one but the second one what ...

the first one didnt have any whole square or stuff so having or not having brackets is same thing

#

other one i just used (a-b)²

valid comet Mar 30, 2024, 1:33 PM

#

Did you keep the sign - that was in front of 3 in formula?

south vector Mar 30, 2024, 1:34 PM

#

valid comet Did you keep the sign - that was in front of 3 in formula?

umm its just a²+b²-2ab

#

consider the sign in the formula.

valid comet Mar 30, 2024, 1:36 PM

#

Wait

#

Isn't

#

(a-b)²= a²-2ab+b² ?

south vector Mar 30, 2024, 1:37 PM

#

ummn u see a²-2ab+b² and a²+b²-2ab are one and the same thing

#

addition of numbers is commutative

south vector Mar 30, 2024, 1:40 PM

#

south vector addition of numbers is commutative

means order doesnt matter

valid comet Mar 30, 2024, 1:40 PM

#

So the second formula is easier?

south vector Mar 30, 2024, 1:40 PM

#

valid comet So the second formula is easier?

nah. they r the same

#consider the function

H=6
