not a mathematical term as far as I know
Does your text use that?
Does your teacher casually refer to this while simplifying?
Looking at the questions, I might guess they mean factor and simplify
e.g. your last one:
Break out and shorten 36x + 8x^3 over 12x
(36x + 8x^3)/(12x)
= 4x(9 + 2x^2)/(12x)
= (9 + 2x^2)/3 , x ≠ 0
1st:
−28x^2−21x^3
= -7x^2(4 + 3x)
2nd: easy now, right?
Last post for today:
This is translated but I'm not really sure what it means.
-Break out of −28x^2−21x^3 as much as possible.
-Break out the largest possible factor from x^2−2x.
-Break out and shorten 36x + 8x^3 over 12x
What does 'break out' mean? Is there an example video that I can find to explain this better? The linked videos don't really have much on this or I'm missing something in translation.

Well in Swedish it's
'Bryt ut så mycket som möjligt ur −28x^2−21x^3' for example.
I shall complete the last one too, I think I get it though!

I assume the last one would be x(x-2) btw then if it's just factoring and simplifing!
Ahhh, I understand, you used a translator
