Math Problem Statement

Simplify the expression (7z^2)^2 - (6z^2 + 11^2)^2.

Solution

The provided expression is:

(7z2)2(6z2+112)2(7z^2)^2 - (6z^2 + 11^2)^2

Let's simplify step-by-step.


Step 1: Expand the squares

  1. First term: (7z2)2=49z4(7z^2)^2 = 49z^4

  2. Second term: (6z2+112)2=(6z2+121)2(6z^2 + 11^2)^2 = (6z^2 + 121)^2 Expanding this using the binomial theorem: (6z2+121)2=(6z2)2+2(6z2)(121)+1212(6z^2 + 121)^2 = (6z^2)^2 + 2(6z^2)(121) + 121^2 =36z4+1452z2+14641= 36z^4 + 1452z^2 + 14641


Step 2: Subtract the two expressions

49z4(36z4+1452z2+14641)49z^4 - (36z^4 + 1452z^2 + 14641)

Distribute the negative sign: 49z436z41452z21464149z^4 - 36z^4 - 1452z^2 - 14641

Combine like terms: (49z436z4)1452z214641(49z^4 - 36z^4) - 1452z^2 - 14641 13z41452z21464113z^4 - 1452z^2 - 14641


Final Answer:

13z41452z21464113z^4 - 1452z^2 - 14641
