How can sums and differences of cubes be identified for factoring?

The sum of cubes is given as:
a³ + b³ = (a + b)(a² - ab + b²)

Example for the sum of cubes:

64x³+y³ ⇒ This is the sum of cubes because each term; 64, x³, and y³ are cube numbers

By writing each term as an expression of cube numbers, we have:
(4x)³ + (y)³ ⇒ 64 is 4³
Use the factorization of the sum of cubes, we have:
(4x + y) ( (4x)²- 4xy + y²)
(4x + y) (16x² - 4xy + y²)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The difference of cubes can be factorized as:
(x³ - y³) = (x - y)(x² + xy + y²)

Example
(125x³ - 8y³) = (5x - 2y) ((5x)² + (5x)(2y) + (2y)²)
                     = (5x - 2y) (25x² + 10xy + 4y²)

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Using process of elimination we know that it cannot be a,b or c because after you add the 2 new stamps james collected the ratio is 8:12 which cannot be 1:2 because 8 is not half, can't be B because 8 is less than 12, Also cannot be C because 8 is less than 12
