4x^2-y^2 how do you factorize this? with steps pls:)

Work Shown:

4x^2 - y^2

(2x)^2 - (y)^2

(2x-y)(2x+y)

When going from the second step to the third step, I used the difference of squares rule. That rule is a^2-b^2 = (a-b)(a+b). In this case, a = 2x and b = y.

Side note: (2x-y)(2x+y) is the same as (2x+y)(2x-y). We can multiply in any order.

step-by-step explanation:

well, you see here, jamal was born to 2 parents, his mother who he lives with and his father who left at a young age and who happens to be younger than him. he stole cookies because he has to steal food due to the fact that he spends his government poverty checks on pot and women.
