Full solution

Q. Write as a product.\newline492axa2x2 49-2 a x-a^{2}-x^{2} \newline\square
  1. Recognize as difference of squares: Recognize the expression as a difference of squares.\newline(49x2)(a2+2ax)(49 - x^2) - (a^2 + 2ax)
  2. Rewrite each square: Rewrite each square.\newline(72x2)(a2+2ax)(7^2 - x^2) - (a^2 + 2ax)
  3. Factor each difference of squares: Factor each difference of squares.\newline(7x)(7+x)(a+x)2(7 - x)(7 + x) - (a + x)^2
  4. Correct grouping of terms: Realize there's a mistake; the second term is not a difference of squares.\newlineGo back to the original expression and group terms correctly.\newline(49a2)(2ax+x2)(49 - a^2) - (2ax + x^2)
