Full solution

Q. Factor. \newline 2x8+7x22x^8 + 7x^2 \newline______
  1. Identify GCF of terms: Identify the greatest common factor (GCF) of the terms in the expression 2x8+7x22x^8 + 7x^2.\newlineThe GCF of 2x82x^8 and 7x27x^2 is x2x^2.
  2. Factor out GCF: Factor out the GCF from the expression.\newlineWe can write 2x8+7x22x^8 + 7x^2 as x2(2x6+7)x^2(2x^6 + 7).
  3. Check for further factoring: Check if the expression inside the parentheses can be factored further.\newlineThe expression 2x6+72x^6 + 7 does not have any common factors and it is not a special polynomial (like a difference of squares or a perfect square trinomial), so it cannot be factored further.
