Solution

expand

(a - 2)^{3}

Solution

a^{3} - 6 a^{2} + 12 a - 8

Solution steps

(a - 2)^{3}

Apply Perfect Cube Formula:

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

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

= a^{3} - 3 a^{2} \cdot 2 + 3 a \cdot 2^{2} - 2^{3}

Simplify

a^{3} - 3 a^{2} \cdot 2 + 3 a \cdot 2^{2} - 2^{3} : a^{3} - 6 a^{2} + 12 a - 8

= a^{3} - 6 a^{2} + 12 a - 8
