Q. Factor completely:\newline4c4+11c2n615n12 4 c^{4}+11 c^{2} n^{6}-15 n^{12} \newlineAnswer:
  1. Identify Common Factors: Identify the polynomial and look for common factors.\newlineWe have the polynomial 4c4+11c2n615n124c^{4} + 11c^{2}n^{6} - 15n^{12}. We need to check if there is any common factor that can be factored out from all terms. In this case, there is no common factor across all terms.
  2. Recognize Quadratic Form: Recognize the polynomial as a quadratic in form. The polynomial can be seen as a quadratic in terms of c2c^{2}, where c2c^{2} is the variable and n6n^{6} is a constant. The polynomial then takes the form of Ac4+Bc2+CAc^{4} + Bc^{2} + C, where A=4A = 4, B=11n6B = 11n^{6}, and C=15n12C = -15n^{12}.
  3. Apply Quadratic Formula: Apply the quadratic formula to factor the polynomial.\newlineThe quadratic formula for factoring Ax2+Bx+CAx^2 + Bx + C is based on finding two numbers that multiply to ACA\cdot C and add up to BB. In this case, we need to find two numbers that multiply to (4)(15n12)=60n12(4)(-15n^{12}) = -60n^{12} and add up to 11n611n^{6}.
  4. Find Suitable Numbers: Find two numbers that satisfy the conditions.\newlineWe are looking for two numbers that multiply to 60n12-60n^{12} and add up to 11n611n^{6}. These numbers are 20n620n^{6} and 3n6-3n^{6}. We can check this by multiplying and adding them:\newline(20n6)(3n6)=60n12(20n^{6})(-3n^{6}) = -60n^{12} and 20n63n6=17n620n^{6} - 3n^{6} = 17n^{6}, which does not add up to 11n611n^{6}. There is a mistake here.
