9$x$($x^{2}$ - 1) = 9$x$($x$ + 1)($x$ - 1)

To factor this polynomial, start by looking for the greatest common factor between both terms. Since the GCF has already been found for the first term, we must apply the formula A^2 - B^2 = (A + B)(A - B) to the second term. The result will create three different terms and is the final answer.
