Factor
4x^3/2 - 2x^1/2 > 0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


The condition seems to be strange, since the problem asks to factor,

but the given part is not simply an expression (as a normal reader should expect), but inequality, instead.

Factoring itself is very simple in this problem, just in one single line


    4x^(3/2) - 2x^(1/2) = 2x^(1/2)*(2x-1).    ANSWER


The factor  2x^(1/2)  is the common multiplier: it goes out the parentheses.

Solved.
