Simple answer, you cant

but to come close
x-y =6

subtract x to both sides
x-y-x=6-x
-y=6-x

multiply negative 1 to both sides
(-1) -y =-1(6-x)

distribute the negative sign
y=-6+x

y=x-6
this is different from y=6-x which is why I said you cant

Factorise x ^ 4 + 1/x ^ 4 - 3

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 1 and subtract 1, so that the expression won't change.

$x^{4}+\frac{1}{x^{4}}-3=x^{4}+\frac{1}{x^{4}}-3 +1 - 1\\\\=x^{4}+\frac{1}{x^{4}} - 2 + 1\\\\= (x^{2})^{2} + (\frac{1}{x^{2}})^{2}- 2 *x^{2}*\frac{1}{x^{2}} - 1\\\\$
