@All.
(b - c) (b + c) - a (b - c) I don't understand this step. How are you multiplying (b-c) separately with a? Anyone explain it to me.

Can you explain it, please?

@All.
x(b2+bc-ab-cb-c2+ac) by following like this you will get finally x(0) = 1.

@Rita.
It is actually [x^(b-c)]^(b+c-a).
According to law of INDICES, (a^m)^n= a^mn.
So, [x^(b-c)]^(b+c-a)=x^(b-c)(b+c-a).
