Solution for Factoring Binomials as Sum or Difference of Cubes a^3-b^3
Given polynomial is a^3-b^3
It can be expanded using a^3-b^3 formula i.e a3-b3=(a-b)(a2+ab+b2)
(a-b)(a^2+ab+b^2)
=a (a^2 + a b + b^2) - b (a^2 + a b + b^2)
= a^3 + a^2b + ab^2 - a^2b - ab^2 - b^3
= a^3 - b^3
=(a^1-b^1)(a^2+a^1b^1+b^2)
So, the factors of a^3-b^3 are (a - b) (a^2 + a b + b^2)
