A and b are monomials where a = 125 and b = 27p12. what is the factored form of a – b? (5 – 3p4)(25 15p4 9p8) (25 – 3p4)(5 15p3 9p3) (25 – 3p4)(5 15p4 3p8) (5 – 3p4)(25 15p3 3p4)

Respuesta :

The correct option is (A). The factored form of a-b is (5-3p⁴)(25+15p⁴+9p⁸).

Given that A and B are monomials where a = 125 and b = 27p¹².

Monomial expressions include only one non-zero term. Numbers, variables, or multiples of numbers and variables are all examples of monomials.

Firstly, substitute a=125 and b = 27p¹² into a-b, we get

a-b=125-27p¹²        ......(1)

As we know, 125=(5)³, 27p¹²=(3p⁴)

So, equation (1) can be rewritten as

a-b=(5)³-(3p⁴)

Now, apply a³-b³=(a-b)(a²+ab+b²).

a³-b³=(5-3p⁴)(5²+5(3p⁴)+(3p⁴)²)

Further, Simplify using exponent rule with the same exponent (ab)ⁿ=aⁿbⁿ.

a³-b³=(5-3p⁴)(5²+5×3p⁴+3²×(p⁴)²)

Furthermore, calculate the power, we get

a³-b³=(5-3p⁴)(5²+5×3p⁴+9(p⁴)²)

Then, Simplify using exponent power rule (aˣ)ⁿ=aˣⁿ, we get

a³-b³=(5-3p⁴)(5²+5×3p⁴+9p⁸)

Now, multiply the monomials, we get

a³-b³=(5-3p⁴)(5²+15p⁴+9p⁸)

Further, calculate the power, we get

a³-b³=(5-3p⁴)(25+15p⁴+9p⁸)

Finally, reorder the expressions, we get

a³-b³=(5-3p⁴)(9p⁸+15p⁴+25)

Hence, the factored form of a-b where a and b monomials and a = 125 and b = 27p¹² is (5-3p⁴)(9p⁸+15p⁴+25).
