factor x^{n+2}-x^n

Solution

factor

x^{n + 2} - x^{n}

Solution

x^{n} (x + 1) (x - 1)

Solution steps

x^{n + 2} - x^{n}

Apply exponent rule:

a^{b + c} = a^{b} a^{c}

= x^{2} x^{n} - x^{n}

Factor out common term

x^{n}

= x^{n} (x^{2} - 1)

Factor

x^{2} - 1 : (x + 1) (x - 1)

= x^{n} (x + 1) (x - 1)
