Answer:
(a^2+ax-y) (a^2+ax+y^2)
Step-by-step explanation:
a^4+2xa³+a²x²-y^4
(a^2+ax)^2-y^4
(a^2+ax-y) (a^2+ax+y^2)

Answer:
(a^2 +ax -y^2)·(a^2 +ax +y^2)
Step-by-step explanation:
This can be factored as the difference of squares.
a^4 +2a^3x +a^2x^2 - y^4 = a^2(a+x)^2 - y^4
= (a(a+x) -y^2)(a(a+x) +y^2)
= (a^2 +ax -y^2)·(a^2 +ax +y^2)
