Q. 2. Which expression below simplifies to 3w22(z2−2) ?A. 9w6z4(4w2z4−16w2z2)B. 9w4z2(4w2z4−16w2z2)C. 18w6z4(12w2z4−24w2z2)(D. 18w4z2(12w2z4−24w2z2)
Simplify Option A: Let's start by simplifying each option to see if it matches the given expression (2(z2−2))/(3w2).Option A: ((4w2z4−16w2z2))/(9w6z4)We can factor out 4w2z2 from the numerator and cancel out w2z4 from the numerator and denominator.Simplification: (4w2z2(z2−4))/(9w6z4)=(4/9)(z2−4)/(w4)This does not match the given expression because the powers of w and z do not match.
Simplify Option B: Option B: 9w4z2(4w2z4−16w2z2)We can factor out 4w2z2 from the numerator and cancel out w2z2 from the numerator and denominator.Simplification: 9w4z2(4w2z2(z2−4))=94w2(z2−4)This does not match the given expression because the coefficient in front of the simplified expression is 94 instead of 32.
Simplify Option C: Option C: 18w6z4(12w2z4−24w2z2)We can factor out 12w2z2 from the numerator and cancel out w2z4 from the numerator and denominator.Simplification: 18w6z4(12w2z2(z2−2))=1812w4(z2−2)This does not match the given expression because the powers of w do not match and the coefficient in front of the simplified expression is 1812 instead of 32.
Simplify Option D: Option D: 18w4z2(12w2z4−24w2z2)We can factor out 12w2z2 from the numerator and cancel out w2z2 from the numerator and denominator.Simplification: 18w4z2(12w2z2(z2−2))=w2(12/18)(z2−2)Simplify the coefficient: (12/18) simplifies to (2/3).So, the simplified expression is w2(2/3)(z2−2), which matches the given expression 3w22(z2−2).
