a)factorize 8p^3-27^q3 b) hence, factorize 8p^3+12p^2q-18pq^2-27q^3

OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):

For (a) I would use the difference of cube i.e. a^3-b^3=(a-b)(a^2+ab+b^2)

OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):

For (b), I would factorize the rest except 8p^3 and -27q^3. They will have a common factor.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a) (2p-3q)(4p^2+6pq+3q^2) right

OpenStudy (kc_kennylau):

nope
