Data

Expression               8x² - 144x + 864

8(x² − 18x + 108)      This expression is correct because is factoring common terms. The common factor is 8.

8(x² − 18x) + 108       This option is wrong because 108 must by multiply by 8.

8(x − 9)² − 216           This option is incorrect because the first two terms is not

                                  a difference of squares.

8(x − 9)² + 216          This option is also wrong is a mistake the factor only the

                                   first two terms.
