Factor by GCF:
4n⁶+16n⁴-8n

• 4n(n⁴+4n³-2)
• 4n(n⁵+4n³-2)
• 12n(n⁵+4n⁴-2)
• 16n(n⁵+4n³-2)

Factor by GCF:
80x⁵-70x²-60x⁷

• 2x²(80x³-70-60x⁶)
• 10x²(80x⁴-70x-60x⁶)
• 10x²(8x³-7-6x⁶)
• 3x²(80x³-40-60x⁵)

Factor by difference of squares:

 x² – 16

• (x + 2)(x – 8)
• (x – 4)(x – 4)
• (x + 4)(x + 4)
• (x + 4)(x – 4)

Factor by difference of squares:

4y² – 9

• (2y + 3)(2y – 3)
• prime
• (2y + 3)(2y + 3)
• (2y – 3)(2y – 3)

Factor by difference of squares:

x² - 25

• ( x + 5 ) ( x - 5 ) 
• ( x - 5 ) ( x - 5 ) 
• ( x + 25 ) ( x - 25 ) 
• Prime

Factor by difference of squares:

225 - x²

• ( x + 15)( x - 15) 
• Prime
• ( 15 - x)( 15 + x) 
• ( 15 - x) ( 15 - x) 

Factor by difference of squares:

4x² - 25y²

• Prime
• ( 2x - 5) (2x + 5) 
• ( 4x - 5y) (4x - 5y) 
• ( 2x - 5y) (2x + 5y)
