in each case I see a common factor.
I will do the first one, you show me how to do the other two ...
(x-12)9 + x(x-12)
= 9(x-12) + x(x-12), the x-12 is a common factor
= (12-x)(9+x)
all done!
Write each polynomial as the product of two binomials.
What's the answers?
(x - 12)9 + x(x - 12)
x(x + 7) + 9(x + 7)
(x - 10)-9 + 7x(x - 10)
