    I believe the answer is (x+3) (x-3) (x-4) (x-1)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Notice both terms are perfect squares, therefore you can factor using the difference of squares formula:

    (x²-9) (x²-5x+4)

    For the first term, we get (x+3) (x-3) because x²-9 is a perfect square.

    For the second term, we get (x-4) (x-1) because x²-5x+4 is a perfect square trinomial.
