Factor y6 + 7y3 - 8 completely.
| Strategy: | Notice that the variable y6
is the square of the variable y3. Thus we will rewrite the polynomial in the form of a quadratic where the variable is y3 |
|
| y6 + 7y3 - 8 | = (y3)2 + 7(y3)1 - 8 | Rewrite the polynomial as a
quadratic with the variable being y3 . |
| Show work. | Factor this polynomial as a quadratic. |
