Answer 1

Part A: I'm not sure I'm reading your question correctly.
Part B: (x-1)(x-1) or (x-1)^2
Part C: (x+8)(x+8) or (x+8)^2

Answer 2

c^2 is GCF for Part A

= c^2(3x^2 + 2x - 1)

= c^2(3x - 1)(x + 1)

Part B

x^2 - 2x + 1

= x^2 - x - x + 1

= x(x - 1) - 1(x - 1)

= (x - 1)^2

Part c

x^2 - 64

= (x + 8)(x - 8)
