Solve the quadratic equation by factoring and taking square roots.
13. 2x² − 128 = 0
Factoring:
Taking Square Roots:
14. −3t² + 108 = 0
Factoring:
Taking Square Roots:

Answer

  1. Factoring: 2x² − 128 = 2(x² − 64) = 2(x − 8)(x + 8) = 0, so x = 8 or x = −8.

    Taking Square Roots: 2x² = 128, so x² = 64 and x = ±√64 = ±8.

  2. Factoring: −3t² + 108 = −3(t² − 36) = −3(t − 6)(t + 6) = 0, so t = 6 or t = −6.

    Taking Square Roots: −3t² = −108, so t² = 36 and t = ±√36 = ±6.
