Identify Common Factor: Identify the common factor in both terms.Both terms have a common factor of (x+8).
Factor Out Common Factor: Factor out the common factor from both terms.The expression can be written as x+\(8)(4x^2−7)\.
Check for Further Factoring: Check if the remaining terms can be factored further. The terms 4x2 and −7 have no common factors and the expression 4x2−7 cannot be factored further using integers.
Write Final Factored Form: Write the final factored form of the expression.The completely factored form of the expression is (x+8)(4x2−7).
