Answer

\(\boxed{8 x^{4}-64 x = 8x(x - 2)(x^{2} + 2x + 4)}\)

Steps

Step 1 :We are given two polynomials: \(x^{3}-3 x^{2}-4 x+12\) and \(8 x^{4}-64 x=0\).

Step 2 :We need to factorize these polynomials.

Step 3 :For the first polynomial, we can use the method of synthetic division to find its factors.

Step 4 :The factors of the first polynomial are \((x - 3)(x - 2)(x + 2)\).

Step 5 :For the second polynomial, we can factorize it by taking out the common factor.

Step 6 :The factors of the second polynomial are \(8x(x - 2)(x^{2} + 2x + 4)\).

Step 7 :\(\boxed{x^{3}-3 x^{2}-4 x+12 = (x - 3)(x - 2)(x + 2)}\)

Step 8 :\(\boxed{8 x^{4}-64 x = 8x(x - 2)(x^{2} + 2x + 4)}\)
