Write a linear factorization of the function. f(x) = x^4 + 4x^2

We can factor x^2 from both terms:

This is a complete factorization over the reals, we can't go any deeper. If you're allowed to use complex numbers, we can continue to factor the parenthesis:

hey there!

if she's saving for six months, let's divide the total number we need for the trip by six, dividing it into the amount that needs to be saved for each month.

500 ÷ 6 =

she needs to save at least this amount each month, so we should use this symbol: ≥

let x be the amount she saves each month.

your final answer is x ≥

hope this !
