Multiple Choice

Factor, using the given factor. Assume all variables represent positive real numbers.
- $( q + 6 ) ^ { - 3 / 17 } + ( q + 6 ) ^ { - 1 / 17 } + ( q + 6 ) ^ { 1 / 17 } ; \quad ( q + 6 ) ^ { - 3 / 17 }$

• A) \(( q + 6 ) ^ { - 3 / 17 } \left[ 1 + ( q + 6 ) ^ { 1 / 17 } + ( q + 6 ) ^ { 3 / 17 } \right]\)
• B) \(( q + 6 ) ^ { - 3 / 17 } \left[ 1 + ( q + 6 ) ^ { - 2 / 17 } + ( q + 6 ) ^ { - 4 / 17 } \right]\)
• C) \(( q + 6 ) ^ { - 3 / 17 } \left[ 1 + ( q + 6 ) ^ { 2 / 17 } + ( q + 6 ) ^ { 4 / 17 } \right]\)
• D) \(( q + 6 ) ^ { - 3 / 17 } \left[ 1 + ( q + 6 ) ^ { 4 / 17 } + ( q + 6 ) ^ { 6 / 17 } \right]\)
