1. Problem Description

The problem requires us to factor the expression 481x2y24 - 81x^2y^2 using the difference of two squares formula.

2. Solution Steps

The difference of two squares formula is:
a2b2=(ab)(a+b)a^2 - b^2 = (a - b)(a + b)
We need to express the given expression 481x2y24 - 81x^2y^2 in the form a2b2a^2 - b^2.
We can rewrite 44 as 222^2 and 81x2y281x^2y^2 as (9xy)2(9xy)^2.
So, we have 481x2y2=22(9xy)24 - 81x^2y^2 = 2^2 - (9xy)^2.
Now, we can apply the difference of two squares formula:
22(9xy)2=(29xy)(2+9xy)2^2 - (9xy)^2 = (2 - 9xy)(2 + 9xy)

3. Final Answer

(29xy)(2+9xy)(2 - 9xy)(2 + 9xy)
