Factor out 9w-w^3

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

\[ 9w-w^3~~~~~~->~~~~~~~~w(9-w^2)~~~~~~->~~~~~w(3-w)(3+w)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can u please explain to me step by step please

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

OK, sure, see how I factored out of w?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (solomonzelman):

after I have \[w(9-w^2) \] I know that \[a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)\] 9 can be written as 3^2 so what you have is \[w(3^2-w^2)~~~~~->~~~~~w(3-w)(3+w)\] SEE?
