Question

factorize - 2a⁴-32b⁴​

Answer 1

Answer:

-2(a^2 + 4b^2) (a + 2b) (a - 2b)

Step-by-step explanation:

-2a^4 - 32b^4

= -2(a^4 - 16b^4)

= -2[a^4 - (4b^2)^2]

= -2[a^2 + 4b^2] [a^2 - 4b^2]

= -2(a^2 + 4b^2) [a^2 - (2b)^2]

= -2(a^2 + 4b^2) (a + 2b) (a - 2b)

Answer 2

Answer:

2(a-2b) (a+2b) (a²+4b²)

Step-by-step explanation:

2(a⁴-16b⁴)

2((a²)²-(4b²)²)

2(a²-4b²) (a²+4b²)

2(a-2b) (a+2b) (a²+4b²)
