I'm having a hard time solving 4x^2 - 64y^2? Can anyone help me? I got this as my answer: (2x+8y)(2x-8y). But it's a multiple choice question and that's not one of the choices.
You should first remove the greatest common factor which is 4. This results in 4(x^2-16y^2). Now factor the difference of squares and you get the completely factored form 4(x+4y)(x-4y)
