We have in this case the difference of Perfect Cubes since we have:

[tex]x^3-8=x^3-2^3[/tex]

We know that this case can be factored as follows:

[tex]a^3-b^3=(a-b)\cdot(a^2+ab+b^2)[/tex]

If we have that:

a = x

b = 2

Then, we have:

[tex](x-2)\cdot(x^2_{}+2x+2^2)=(x-2)\cdot(x^2+2x+4)[/tex]

Therefore, the factored form of the perfect cube (for difference) is:

[tex]undefined[/tex]
