Question 247366: b^12-w^2 I have to factor the polynomial completely but if it cannont be factored than it's prime. I think it can be factors but I am not sure how to do it when the exponents are this large.
Thanks for you help:) Answer by checkley77(12844) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! b^12-w^2
(b^6+w)(b^6-w) ans.
Proof:
b^6+w
b^6-w multiply
----------------
b^12+b^6w-b^6w+w^2
b^12+w^2
