    Factor out x from 8x^2-x: (8x-1)

    8x^2-x

    Apply exponent rule: a^b+^c=a^b a^c

    x^2=xx

    =8xx-x

    Factor out common term x

    =x (8x-1)

    Factor out - 1 from - 8x+1: - (8x-1)

    -8x+1

    Factor out common term - 1

    = - (8x-1)

    =x (8x-1) - (8x-1)

    Factor out common term 8x-1

    = (8x-1) (x-1)

    (8x-1) (x-1)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    8x² - 9x + 1

    (8x - ) (x - )

    We know it is minus because we have - 9x

    We have + 1 so both have to be -

    To fill in the blanks we put 1

    The only combination is 1*1 = 1

    (8x-1) (x-1)

    Lets check

    8x^2 - x - 8x + 1

    (8x^2 - 9x+1
