Respuesta :

The solution of factorization of x ³ + 64 is ( x + 4 )( x ² - 4 x + 16 ) [ Option C ].

The question asks to factorize the given polynomial, that is, x ³ + 64.

The question clearly states that we need to use the sum of cubes formula to factor the given polynomial x ³ + 64.

Sum of cube formula is given as

a ³ + b ³  = ( a + b ) ( a ² - a b + b ² ).

Substitute the values of variable a and b from the given polynomial x ³ + 64

x³ + 64 can be written as x ³ + 4 ³

=> a = x and b = 4

=> x ³ + 4 ³ = ( x + 4 ) ( x ² - 4 x + 4 ² )

=>  x ³  + 4 ³ = ( x + 4 ) ( x ² - 4 x + 16 )

This matches with the option c among the multiple choices for this question.

Therefore, we get the solution of factorization of x ³ + 64 as ( x + 4 )( x ² - 4 x + 16 ).
