The value of (0.96)3 - (0.1)3 is:
(0.96)2 + 0.096 + (0.1)2
0.86
0.95
0.97
1.06
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Given expression
= (0.96)3 - (0.1)3
(0.96)2 + (0.96 x 0.1) + (0.1)2
= a3 - b3
a2 + ab + b2
= (a - b)
= (0.96 - 0.1)
= 0.86

As we have formula a3-b3 = (a-b)(a2+ab+b2).

Now,
(a2+ab+b2) is cancel out and we have (a-b)only.
So, .96 -.1 = .86.

But (a + b)3 is = (a - b) (a2 + ab + b2). Here a3 + b3 so how it can be possible? Both are different, Right?

Hi Friends,

Formula

(a^3-b^3) = (a-b)(a^2+ab+b^2)/a^2+ab+b^2

So cancel thes and we get (a-b).

@Vineash.

The formula of a^3-b^3 = (a-b)(a^2+ab+b^2).
Hence a^3-b^3/a^2+ab+b^2 = a-b.
