Problem 1
Step 1
Identify $$\blue a$$ and $$\red b$$.
Since $$\blue a$$ is the cube root of the first term, $$a = \sqrt[3]{x^3} = \blue x$$.

Step 2
Write down the factored form.
$$
\begin{align*}
a^3 + b^3 & = (\blue a + \red b)(\blue a^2 - \blue a \red b + \blue b^2)\\
x^3 + 8 & = (\blue x + \red 2)(\blue x^2 - \blue x\cdot \red 2 + \red 2^2)\\
