???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u want the factors?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have to solve w/special factoring

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[x^6-y^6 =(x^3)^2-(y^3)^2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[= (x^3-y^3)(x^3+y^3)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[(x-y)(x^2+x y+y^2)(x+y )( x^2-x y +y^2)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you got it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, I'm going over this though

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why do we do the (x+y)(x^2-xy+y^2) ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

factors of (x^3+y^3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

awwwwwww....I see!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks so much!
