:
STEP
3
:
Pulling out like terms
3.1 Pull out like factors :
2y - 32y5 = -2y • (16y4 - 1)
Trying to factor as a Difference of Squares:
3.2 Factoring: 16y4 - 1
Theory : A difference of two perfect squares, A2 - B2 can be factored into (A+B) • (A-B)
Proof : (A+B) • (A-B) =
A2 - AB + BA - B2 =
A2 - AB + AB - B2 =
A2 - B2
Note : AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.
Note : - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.
Check : 16 is the square of 4
Check : 1 is the square of 1
Check : y4 is the square of y2
Factorization is : (4y2 + 1) • (4y2 - 1
