QuestionWhat is the value of a3b35\frac{a^{3}-b^{3}}{5} for a=2a=2 and b=3b=-3? Options: 345-3 \frac{4}{5}, 35-\frac{3}{5}, 3, 7.

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The value of aa is. The value of bb is -33. We need to substitute these values into the expression a3b35\frac{a^{3}-b^{3}}{5}

STEP 2

Substitute the given values of aa and bb into the expression.
ab5=2()5\frac{a^{}-b^{}}{5} = \frac{2^{}-(-)^{}}{5}

STEP 3

Calculate the values of 232^{3} and (3)3(-3)^{3}.
23=82^{3} =8(3)3=27(-3)^{3} = -27

STEP 4

Substitute these calculated values back into the expression.
8(27)\frac{8 - (-27)}{}

STEP 5

implify the expression inside the numerator. Remember that subtracting a negative number is equivalent to adding a positive number.
8+275\frac{8 +27}{5}

STEP 6

Calculate the value inside the numerator.
8+27=358 +27 =35

STEP 7

Substitute this value back into the expression.
355\frac{35}{5}

STEP 8

Finally, calculate the value of the expression.
355=7\frac{35}{5} =7So, the value of the expression when a=2a=2 and b=3b=-3 is7.
