Question 636659: Hi, I'm having trouble factoring polynomials including quadratics. I found an answer for almost all of them, until I got to one question with powers higher than to the second, or squared. Here's the problem:
9m(cubed)-7m(to the fourth power)+8m(squared)

9m(cubed)-7m(to the fourth power)+8m(squared)
----
-7m^4 + 9m^3 + 8m^2
----
Common factor: -m^2
------
Factor form:
= -m^2(7m^2 - 9m - 1)
