Answer:

<h2>a³-b³  = (a-b)(a²+ab+b²)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

let the two perfect cubes be a³ and b³. Factring the  difference of these two perfect cubes we have;

a³ - b³

First we need to factorize (a-b)³

(a-b)³ = (a-b) (a-b)²

(a-b)³ = (a-b)(a²-2ab+b²)

(a-b)³ = a³-2a²b+ab²-a²b+2ab²-b³

(a-b)³ = a³-b³-2a²b-a²b+ab²+2ab²

(a-b)³ = a³-b³ - 3a²b+3ab²

(a-b)³  = (a³-b³) -3ab(a-b)

Then we will make a³-b³ the subject of the formula from the resultinh equation;

a³-b³ =  (a-b)³+ 3ab(a-b)

a³-b³  = a-b{(a-b)²+3ab}

a³-b³  = a-b{a²+b²-2ab+3ab}

a³-b³  = (a-b)(a²+b²+ab)

a³-b³  = (a-b)(a²+ab+b²)

The long division problem that can be used is (a-b)(a²+ab+b²)

What is the solution to this system of equations?
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

First choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

You could plug in the choices to see which would make all the 3 equations true.

Let's start with (x=2,y=-6,z=1):

2x+y-z=-3

2(2)+-6-1=-3

4-6-1=-3

-2-1=-3

-3=-3 is true so the first choice satisfies the first equation.

5x-2y+2z=24

5(2)-2(-6)+2(1)=24

10+12+2=24

24=24 is true so the first choice satisfies the second equation.

3x-z=5

3(2)-1=5

6-1=5

5=5 is true so the first choice satisfies the third equation.

We don't have to go any further since we found the solution.

---------Another way.

Multiply the first equation by 2 and add equation 1 and equation 2  together.

2(2x+y-z=-3)

4x+2y-2z=-6 is the first equation multiplied by 2.

5x-2y+2z=24

----------------------Add the equations together:

9x+0+0=18

9x=18

Divide both sides by 9:

x=18/9

x=2

Using the third equation along with x=2 we can find z.

3x-z=5 with x=2:

3(2)-z=5

6-z=5

Add z on both sides:

6=5+z

Subtract 5 on both sides:

1=z

Now using the first equation along with 2x+y-z=-3 with x=2 and z=1:

2(2)+y-1=-3

4+y-1=-3

3+y=-3

Subtract 3 on both sides:

y=-6

So the solution is (x=2,y=-6,z=1).
