Expression Factors:
- 1) Factored: ( b(-a + 2b - 2) )
- 2) Factored: ( 3x^4(5x^2 + y - 1) )
- 3) Quadratic Factors: ( (v + 3)(v - 9) )
- 4) Quadratic Factors: ( (n - 3)(n - 6) )
- 5) Factored as ( (7x + 2)^2 )
- 6) Difference of Squares: ( (1 + k)(1 - k) )
- 7) Perfect Square Difference: ( 9(3m + 2)(3m - 2) )
- 8) Grouping gives ( (x^2 - 8)(8x - 7) )
