factor: x^6n - 14x^3n + 49
assume that n is a positive number
x^(6n) - 14x^(3n) + 49 =
(x^(3n) - 7) (x^(3n) - 7) =
(x^(3n) - 7) ^2
hello i was wondering if someone could help me solve this
factor 81t^8+1
Thank you!
81t^8 + 1
(9t^4)^2 + 1^2
This is a sum of squares....it cannot be factored in real terms
