Question 909080: How would I factor this?
12%284x-1%29%5E3%282x%2B5%29%5E9+%2B3%284x-1%29%5E4%282x%2B5%29%5E8
My attempt:
12(4x-1)^3(2x+5)^8[3(4x-1)(2x+5)
12(4x-1)^3(2x+5)^8[3(8x^2+18x-5]
36(4x-1)^3(2x+5)^8(8x^2+18x-5)

12%284x-1%29%5E3%282x%2B5%29%5E9+%2B3%284x-1%29%5E4%282x%2B5%29%5E8

12%2A3%284x-1%29%5E3%282x%2B5%29%5E8%284%282x%2B5%29+%2B+%284x-1%29%29

36%284x-1%29%5E3%282x%2B5%29%5E8%288x%2B20+%2B+4x-1%29

36%284x-1%29%5E3%282x%2B5%29%5E8%2812x%2B19%29

36%2812x%2B19%29%284x-1%29%5E3%282x%2B5%29%5E8

-------------------------------------------------------

So 12%284x-1%29%5E3%282x%2B5%29%5E9+%2B3%284x-1%29%5E4%282x%2B5%29%5E8 completely factors to 36%2812x%2B19%29%284x-1%29%5E3%282x%2B5%29%5E8
