Answer:

(4x-7)(4x+7)

Step-by-step explanation:

16x² - 49

realize that 16 = 4² and 49 = 7²

Substituting these values into the expression,

16x² - 49

= 4²x² - 7²

= (4x)² - 7²

recall the algebra property :  a² - b² = (a+b)(a-b)

Applying this to our expression:

(4x)² - 7²

= (4x-7)(4x+7)     Answer
