x^{3} + 27

$x^{3} + 27$

Step 1

Rewrite

27

$27$ as

3^{3}

$3^{3}$ .

x^{3} + 3^{3}

$x^{3} + 3^{3}$

Step 2

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

a^{3} + b^{3} = (a + b) (a^{2} - a b + b^{2})

$a^{3} + b^{3} = (a + b) (a^{2} - a b + b^{2})$ where

a = x

$a = x$ and

b = 3

$b = 3$ .

(x + 3) (x^{2} - x \cdot 3 + 3^{2})

$(x + 3) (x^{2} - x \cdot 3 + 3^{2})$

Step 3

Step 3.1

Multiply

3

$3$ by

- 1

$- 1$ .

(x + 3) (x^{2} - 3 x + 3^{2})

$(x + 3) (x^{2} - 3 x + 3^{2})$

Step 3.2

Raise

3

$3$ to the power of

2

$2$ .

(x + 3) (x^{2} - 3 x + 9)

$(x + 3) (x^{2} - 3 x + 9)$

(x + 3) (x^{2} - 3 x + 9)

$(x + 3) (x^{2} - 3 x + 9)$
