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)

SVEN [57.7K]

d = 3 , a₁₂ = 40 and Sx_{100} = 7775

In an arithmetic sequence the nth term and sum to n terms are

<h3>• an = a₁ + (n-1)d</h3><h3>• S_n = \frac{n}{2}[2a + (n-1)d]</h3><h3>where d is the common difference</h3><h3>a₆ = a₁ + 5d = 22 ⇒ 7 + 5d = 22 ⇒ 5d = 15 ⇔ d = 3</h3><h3>a₁₂ = 7 + 11d = 7 +( 11× 3) = 7 + 33 = 40</h3><h3>S₁₀₀ = \frac{50}{2}[(2×7) +(99×3)</h3><h3>       = 25(14 + 297) = 25(311)= 7775</h3>
