Factor 9x^6 - 16y^6 completely. First factor each term. 9x^6 = (__) 2 16y^6 = (__) 2

Then use a2 - b2 = (a - b) (a + b).

    See the equation they want you to use. factor to make it like that.

    9 is 3^2 and 16 is 4^2

    x^6 is (x^3) ^2

    so for the answer. factor each term

    9x^6 = (3x^3) ^2

    16y^6 = (4y^3) ^2

    see that "a" is 3x^3 and "b" is 4y^3? put it all together

    = (3x^3 - 4y^3) (3x^3 + 4y^3)
