Next step they are taking (a+b)(b-C) = A*2-B*2 & adding in common X.

Can anyone explain the third step?

X^(b-c)((b+c)-a).
We get, X^(b-c)(b+c)-a(b-c).
I hope we all get understand by this.
We get, X^(b-c)(b+c)-a(b-c).

Second step is the simple representation through indices and hence in the third step the exponents are multiplied and again with the help of indices the sum is solved it is a very simple but tricky question.
Hope you understand my explanation. All the best.

In the second step:
From the first term: x^(b-c)(b+c-a).
There are two brackets term, from the second bracket -a is taken out. As it comes out, it has to be multiplied by the first bracket.
So it gets multiplied and we get x^(b-c)(b+c)-a(b-c).
Similar thing is done for the rest.
