expand (x-2y)^3

Solution

expand

(x - 2 y)^{3}

Solution

x^{3} - 6 x^{2} y + 12 x y^{2} - 8 y^{3}

Solution steps

(x - 2 y)^{3}

Apply Perfect Cube Formula:

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

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

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

Simplify

x^{3} - 3 x^{2} \cdot 2 y + 3 x (2 y)^{2} - (2 y)^{3} : x^{3} - 6 x^{2} y + 12 x y^{2} - 8 y^{3}

= x^{3} - 6 x^{2} y + 12 x y^{2} - 8 y^{3}
