    Factoring AND Polynomials AND trinomials
    I have some questions that I need help with , and here they are:

    1) Find the GCF of a) 8x(2y+3); 4(3+2y)
    b) 8x^4 z( 2y+3)^3 ; 4x^2 ( 3+2y)

    2) Factor completely: a) 4q(x-3y) + 7p(3y-x)
    b)5c(m+5n) -10(5n-m)
    c) (2w+3)^2 + 4(2w+3) -12
    d)9x^2 - 25y^4
    ------- --------
    4 121

    If you can help me, I would GREATLY APPRECIATE IT!! :D :D

    These are very straight forward. 2a,b are done except for one more step.

    2c is a little trickier. It will expand into a quadratic,

    Factor it.

    I will give you a freebie, 2d:

    Difference of two squares.
