The correct Answer is:
To solve the quadratic equation \(4x^2 - 4ax + (a^2 - b^2) = 0\) using the factorization method, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the coefficients The given quadratic equation is in the standard form \(Ax^2 + Bx + C = 0\), where: - \(A = 4\) - \(B = -4a\) - \(C = a^2 - b^2\) ### Step 2: Factor the constant term We know that \(a^2 - b^2\) can be factored using the difference of squares: \[ a^2 - b^2 = (a - b)(a + b) \] ### Step 3: Rewrite the equation Now, we can rewrite the equation as: \[ 4x^2 - 4ax + (a - b)(a + b) = 0 \] ### Step 4: Factor by grouping We need to express the middle term \(-4ax\) in a way that allows us to factor the equation. We can rewrite \(-4ax\) as: \[ -2a \cdot 2x + 2b \cdot 2x = -2a \cdot 2x + 2b \cdot 2x \] This gives us the equation: \[ 4x^2 - 2a \cdot 2x + 2b \cdot 2x + (a - b)(a + b) = 0 \] ### Step 5: Group the terms Now we can group the terms: \[ (4x^2 - 2a \cdot 2x) + (2b \cdot 2x + (a - b)(a + b)) = 0 \] ### Step 6: Factor out common terms From the first group, we can factor out \(2x\): \[ 2x(2x - 2a) + (a - b)(a + b) = 0 \] ### Step 7: Rewrite in factored form Now we can factor the entire expression: \[ 2x(2x - (a - b))(2x - (a + b)) = 0 \] ### Step 8: Set each factor to zero Now we set each factor to zero: 1. \(2x - (a - b) = 0\) 2. \(2x - (a + b) = 0\) ### Step 9: Solve for \(x\) From the first equation: \[ 2x = a - b \implies x = \frac{a - b}{2} \] From the second equation: \[ 2x = a + b \implies x = \frac{a + b}{2} \] ### Final Solution Thus, the solutions to the equation \(4x^2 - 4ax + (a^2 - b^2) = 0\) are: \[ x = \frac{a - b}{2} \quad \text{and} \quad x = \frac{a + b}{2} \] ---
