Question
Simplify :
(3xy – 2ab)³ – (3xy + 2ab)³
✓
Answer
(3xy – 2ab)³ – (3xy + 2ab)³
Here, A = 3xy – 2ab and B = 3xy + 2ab
∴ (3xy – 2ab)³ – (3xy + 2ab)³
= [(3xy – 2ab) – (3xy + 2ab)] [(3xy – 2ab)² + (3xy – 2ab) (3xy + 2ab) + (3xy + 2ab)²]
…[∵ A³ – B³ = (A – B) (A² + AB + B²)]
= (3xy – 2ab – 3xy – 2ab) [(9x²y² – 12xyab + 4a²b²) + (9x²y² – 4a²b²) + (9x²y² + 12xyab + 4a²b²)]
= (- 4ab) (9x²y² + 9x²y² + 9x²y² – 12xyab + 12xyab + 4a²b² – 4a²b² + 4a²b²)
= (- 4ab) (27 xy² + 4a²b²)
= -108x²y²ab – 16a³b³
Here, A = 3xy – 2ab and B = 3xy + 2ab
∴ (3xy – 2ab)³ – (3xy + 2ab)³
= [(3xy – 2ab) – (3xy + 2ab)] [(3xy – 2ab)² + (3xy – 2ab) (3xy + 2ab) + (3xy + 2ab)²]
…[∵ A³ – B³ = (A – B) (A² + AB + B²)]
= (3xy – 2ab – 3xy – 2ab) [(9x²y² – 12xyab + 4a²b²) + (9x²y² – 4a²b²) + (9x²y² + 12xyab + 4a²b²)]
= (- 4ab) (9x²y² + 9x²y² + 9x²y² – 12xyab + 12xyab + 4a²b² – 4a²b² + 4a²b²)
= (- 4ab) (27 xy² + 4a²b²)
= -108x²y²ab – 16a³b³
