doesnt help :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why not?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because they dont have common factorable numbers

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

(7x + 11y)(7x - 11y) is that the answer you're looking for?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes! how did you come up with that though?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

look at the picture. it says everything. They are both perfect squares, 49=7^2, 121=11^2 BY the formula a^2+b^2=(a-b)(a+b)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh THANKS GUYS! YOU BOTH ROCK

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol no prob

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am late, but there's also an app called Wolfram Algebra.... That will factor it & show work. It's great!
