Homework Help Forum: 7th grade

(-4k)2+k2 solve

  • Math, not "7th grade" - Writeacher, Thursday, November 5, 2009 at 10:16pm

    Assistance needed.

    Please type your subject in the School Subject box. Any other words are likely to delay responses from a teacher who knows that subject well.

    Since it is not an equation (It does not have an "=" sign.), there is no solution. However, it can be simplified by combining terms. Even so, I am not sure what your terms are.

    Does (-4k)2+k2 = 2(-4k) + 2k or (-4k)^2 + k^2 where "^2" is the previous term squared?

    If it is the former,

    2(-4k) + 2k = -8k +2k = -6k

    If it is the latter,

    (-4k)^2 + k^2 = 16k^2 + k^2 = 17k^2

    I hope this helps. Thanks for asking.
