Determine whether the statement mekes sense or does not make sense, and explain your answer. I factored 48x² -196 completely and obtained (7x +14)(7x -14). Choose the correct answer below. (A) It makes sense. Because 49x²-196 is the difference of two squares so the factors are (7x +14)(7x -14). (B) It does not make sense. Because (7x +14)(7x -14) is not completely factored and the complete factors are (7x +14)(7x +14). (C) It does not make sense. Because (7x+ 14)(7x- 14) is not completely factored and the complete factors are (7x -14)(7x -14). (D) It makes sense. There is no common factor in (7x+ 14) and (7x - 14) so these are completely factored.
