Question
For the following exercises, solve the quadratic equation by factoring.$9 x^2-16=0$
Step 1
It can be expressed in the form \( a^2 - b^2 = 0 \), where \( a = 3x \) and \( b = 4 \). Step 3: Factor the difference of squares: \[ (3x - 4)(3x + 4) = 0 \] Step 4: Set each factor equal to zero: Show more…
