Hi there!
I'm really stuck about how to fully factorise the following equations and would appreciate some guidance as to how it's done.
(x+y)^2 - x^2
x^5 - 81x
a^2 +3ab +2b^2
Additionally, I have no clue how to do the following question:
"A rectangular metal plate measuring 10 centimetres has two squares cut from it, one of side "x"cm and the other of side 4cm. Show that the remaining area of metal, A, can be expressed as A = (8-x)(8+x) square centimetres.
Once again thanks for your help.
