Answer:


\displaystyle Unfactourable

Step-by-step explanation:

This expression is unfactourable with rational numbers. Perhaps you made an errour in your expression. Now, what I think you meant was the expression and factours below:


\displaystyle 64x^2 - 225 \\ \\ [8x - 15][8x + 15]

If this was what you meant, then here you are.

Though, I am joyous to assist you at any time.
