How to factor the algebra expression?
How do you factor the algebra expression below, thanks in advance
64x
4 – x 

64x4- x
=
x(64x3- 1) {factor an x out it, is the greatest common factor}

You're not done here though, because
64x3- 1 is
a difference of two cubes. It is in the form
a3 –  b3,
and factors into the form (a - b)(
a2 + ab + b2).

x(64x3- 1)
= x(4x - 1)(
16x2+ 4x + 1) this is your completely factored answer

You have been a life saver for me. My younger son is so adamant in hating algebra. But through your site you have made it so interesting to him. He is performing well in school, all thanks to you.
