1. What is the GCF of: 9a^4 b^4 - 27a^3b^3
2. Factor using the difference of two square methods: x^2 - 36
3. Factor the trinomial: x^2 + 7x + 10

i really need help i have a test in an hour
hhanan:
okay so for the first one you have to Find the Greatest Common Factor then Factor out the GCF then simplify it
So you get :\[9a^3b^3(ab-3)\]
For the 2 one you have to 1 rewrite the form
\[x^2-6^2\] then you get (x+6)(x-6)
For the 3 one the number that adds to 10 and 7 are 2 and 5 because 5+5 is 10 and 5+2 is 7
So just rewrite the expression and you get \[(x+2)(x+5)\]
I have to go so if you have any other question I might be back later

Thank yu

for 3
break 7 in a+b=7
\[a \times b=10\]
7=5+2
\[5 \times 2=10\]
\[x^2+(5+2)x+10\]
\[=x^2+5x+2x+10\]
\[=x(x+5)+2(x+5)\]
\[=(x+5)(x+2)\]
