factor x^2-xy-4x+4y

Solution

factor

x^{2} - x y - 4 x + 4 y

Solution

(x - y) (x - 4)

Solution steps

x^{2} - x y - 4 x + 4 y

= (x^{2} - x y) + (4 y - 4 x)

Factor out

x

from

x^{2} - x y : x (x - y)

Factor out

4

from

4 y - 4 x : 4 (y - x)

= x (x - y) + 4 (y - x)

4 (y - x) = - 4 (x - y)

= x (x - y) - 4 (x - y)

Factor out common term

x - y

= (x - y) (x - 4)
