What is the correct factorised form of x³ + 64?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: (x + 4)(x² − 4x + 16)

Correct answer: A. Since 64 = 4³, the expression is x³ + 4³. Use the sum-of-cubes identity a³ + b³ = (a + b)(a² − ab + b²). Taking a = x and b = 4 gives x³ + 64 = (x + 4)(x² − 4x + 16). Option A has the correct first factor and the required minus sign in the middle of the second factor. Option B begins with x − 4, so it represents the wrong cube relationship. Option C has a plus middle term; multiplying it gives x³ + 8x² + 32x + 64, not the original expression. Option D treats 64 as 8³, but 8³ = 512, so its first factor is incorrect. Memory cue: for a³ + b³, the signs are plus, minus, plus.
