Question 302451: factor polynomial if possible if it cannot be factored write prime
20q to the second power minus 5r to the second power
and -49r to te second power + 4t to the second power
could you show me how to do and answer these problems

20q to the second power minus 5r to the second power
20q^2-5r^2
factor out 5
5*(4q^2-r^2)
difference of squares
5*(2q-r)*(2q+r)
