6 (x^6 -1)
x^6 - 1 = (-1+x) (1+x) (1-x+x^2) (1+x+x^2)
6x^6 - 6 = 6(-1+x) (1+x) (1-x+x^2) (1+x+x^2)

\[6x ^{6}-6 =6(x ^{6}-1)=6(x ^{2})^{3}-1=6(x-1)(x ^{2}+x+1)\]

(x^2−1) = (x+1)(x-1)
(1-x+x^2) (1+x+x^2) = (x^4 + x^2 +1)

no moneybird us formula a3 -b3 =(a-b)(a2+ab+b2)

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
but you can using again the same 6(x6-1)=6((x3)2 -1 =6(x3-1)(x3+1) what you can continue

No there's a formula for all n numbers
(a^n - b^n = (a-b)(a^(n-1) + a^(n-2)b...b^(n-1)

most regular schools won't teach you that. It doesn't mean this property does not exist

jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
the right answer is 6(x-1)(x+1)(x4+x2+1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):
no. You can still simplify x^4+x^2+1

how ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok let x^2 = a
x^4+x^2+1 = a^2 + a + 1
factor this and plug x^2 back after

how you can factorizing a2+a+1

OpenStudy (anonymous):
(1-x+x^2) (1+x+x^2)
if you expand this, you will get x^4+x^2+1)
