Use the identity below to complete the tasks: a3 − b3 = (a − b)(a2 + ab + b2) When using the identity for the sum of two cubes to factor 125q6 − r6s3. What is a? What is b?

Respuesta :

Answer:

a = 5q²

b = r²s

Step-by-step explanation:

The given identity is [tex]a^{3}-b^{3}=(a-b)(a^{2}+ab+b^{2})[/tex]

we have to use this identity to factor of two cubes given as [tex][tex]125q^{6}-r^{6}s^{3}=(5q^{2})^{3}-(r^{2}s)^{3}[/tex][/tex]

As this expression is in the form of a³- b³

Here a is 5q² and b is r²s.

Answer:

What is a? ✔ 5q² (which is the first choice)

What is b? ✔ r²s (which is the last choice)

Factor the expression:

(5q^2-r^2s) (25q^4+ 5q^2r^2s+ 1r^4s^2)

The answer of the numbers are  in bold for the factor expression
