Question
Simplify:
$a^2(2 a-1)+3 a+a^3-8$
$a^2(2 a-1)+3 a+a^3-8$
✓
Answer
To simplify, we will use distributive law as follows:
$a^2(2 a-1)+3 a+a^3-8$
$=2 a^3-a^2+3 a+a^3-8$
$=2 a^3+a^3-a^2+3 a-8$
$=3 a^3-a^2+3 a-8$
$a^2(2 a-1)+3 a+a^3-8$
$=2 a^3-a^2+3 a+a^3-8$
$=2 a^3+a^3-a^2+3 a-8$
$=3 a^3-a^2+3 a-8$
