Match each polynomial to its factored form:

• (x-4)(x+1)

• (x+4)(x+1)

• (x+4)(x-1)

• (x-4)(x-1)

Match each polynomial with the correct label for factoring.

• Sum of Two Squares

• GCF Only

• Difference of

  Two Squares

• Sum of

  Two Cubes

• Difference of

  Two Cubes

If a = 4x and b = 5, write a SUM of Cubes Problem that would need to then be factored.
