Answer:

(x^2 + 4)(x + 2)(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

We can use the difference of square method.

<h2>Difference Of Squares (DOS)</h2>

The formula for the DOS is (a + b)(a - b) = a^2 - b^2

It is a simple way to factor polynomials.

The criteria:

  • Has to begin and end with a perfect square
  • The operation has to be subtraction

<h3>Factor:</h3>
  • x^4 - 16

Begins with a perfect square (x² * x²) and ends with a perfect square (4 * 4)

  • (x^2 + 4)(x^2 - 4)

Warning! Watch out, there may be another DOS!

x^2 - 4 is another DOS

  • (x^2 + 4)(x + 2)(x - 2)

The x² + 4 is not a DOS because the operation is addition.

The final factored form is (x^2 + 4)(x + 2)(x - 2)

You would do the same thing for the next two plays, moving 5 spots to the left each play and creating a new starting point each time. The total spots moved after the 3 plays is 15 spots to the left.
