$(x - \sqrt[3]{2}) (x^{2} + \sqrt[3]{2 x} + \sqrt[3]{4})$

Step 1

Expand $(x - \sqrt[3]{2}) (x^{2} + \sqrt[3]{2 x} + \sqrt[3]{4})$ by multiplying each term in the first expression by each term in the second expression.

$x \cdot x^{2} + x \sqrt[3]{2 x} + x \sqrt[3]{4} - \sqrt[3]{2} x^{2} - \sqrt[3]{2} \sqrt[3]{2 x} - \sqrt[3]{2} \sqrt[3]{4}$

Step 2.1.1.1.1

Raise $x$ to the power of $1$ .

$x^{1} x^{2} + x \sqrt[3]{2 x} + x \sqrt[3]{4} - \sqrt[3]{2} x^{2} - \sqrt[3]{2} \sqrt[3]{2 x} - \sqrt[3]{2} \sqrt[3]{4}$

Step 2.1.1.1.2

Use the power rule $a^{m} a^{n} = a^{m + n}$ to combine exponents.

$x^{1 + 2} + x \sqrt[3]{2 x} + x \sqrt[3]{4} - \sqrt[3]{2} x^{2} - \sqrt[3]{2} \sqrt[3]{2 x} - \sqrt[3]{2} \sqrt[3]{4}$

Step 2.1.1.2

Add $1$ and $2$ .

$x^{3} + x \sqrt[3]{2 x} + x \sqrt[3]{4} - \sqrt[3]{2} x^{2} - \sqrt[3]{2} \sqrt[3]{2 x} - \sqrt[3]{2} \sqrt[3]{4}$
