Answer:

Since both terms are perfect cubes, factor using the sum of cubes formula,

a³+b³=(a+b)(a²-ab+b²) where

a=n and b=8

(n+8)(n²-8n+64)

Answer

(n+8)(-8n+64)

hi

have a good day

thank me later

Answer:

Explanation:

The only one that has a chance of being correct is D. That's because the first term is correct and you have to assume that the second one is as well.

cubrt(512) = 8

The first term is (n + 8)

The second term is (n^2 - 8*n + 8^2) = n^2 - 8n + 64

All the other answers have the wrong first term

A: it should be n + 8 not n - 8

B and C are both wrong because the cube root of 512 is 8 not 4.
