Question

factor completely:
see below:

Answer 1

\[2m ^{2}-4m ^{5}n ^{8}-48mn ^{9}\]

Answer 2

I am confused?

Answer 3

how did they get this as an answer???????\[2m(m-2m ^{4}n ^{8}-24n ^{9}\]

Answer 4

I got this \[2(m ^{2}-2m ^{5}n ^{8}-24mn ^{9})\]

Answer 5

ok

Answer 6

well they just factor a 2m out of everything
\[2m(m-2m^4n^8-24n^9)\]

Answer 7

I don't know how to finish it

Answer 8

@zzr0ck3r
You finished it. That's all you can do.

Answer 9

how do we know that @mathstudent55 ?

Answer 10

\(-2m(2m^4n^8 - m + 24n^9)\)

There are no two integers whose product is 2*24=48 and whose sum is -1.
