x2 - 2xy + y2 + 3x - 3y - 4
= (x2 - 2xy + y2) + (3x - 3y) - 4
= (x - y)2 + 3(x - y) - 4
= [(x - y)2 - (x - y)] + [4(x - y) - 4]
= (x - y)(x - y - 1) + 4(x - y - 1)
= (x - y + 4)(x - y - 1)
x^2-2xy+y^2+3x-3y-4
= (x^2 - 2xy + y^2) + (3x-3y )
= (x-y)^2 + 3.(x-y) -4
= (x-y). (x-y + 3 -4)
= (x-y). (x-y-1)
