Question

Simplify (2x – 5y)3 – (2x + 5y)3.

Simplify

Solution

(2x – 5y)3 – (2x + 5y)3 = [(2x)3 – (5y)3 – 3(2x)(5y)(2x – 5y)] – [(2x)3 + (5y)3 + 3(2x)(5y)(2x + 5y)]  ...[Using identity, (a – b)3 = a3 – b3 – 3ab and (a + b)3 = a3 + b3 + 3ab]

= (2x)3 – (5y)3 – 30xy(2x – 5y) – (2x)3 – (5y)3 – 30xy(2x + 5y)

= –2(5y)3 – 30xy(2x – 5y + 2x + 5y)

= –2 × 125y3 – 30xy(4x)

= –250y3 – 120x2y
