Multiply then simplify, that's doing the same work twice...anyway
x^3+x^2y+xy^2-x^2y-xy^2-y^3
x^3-y^3 which if factored is:
(x-y)(x^2+xy+y^2) which is what you started with :)
Answer:
- asymptotes: x = -5, x = 5
- zero: x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The function of interest is ...

The asymptotes are found where the denominator is zero. It will be zero when either factor is zero, so at x = 5 and x = -5
__
The zeros are found where the numerator is zero. It will be zero for x = 0.
The asymptotes are x=-5, x=5; the zero is x=0.
