Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
To identify the equivalent expression first identify the different terms in the given expression.
2+(x−2)(x−2)(x−2)
Term One=2
Term Two=(x−2)(x−2)(x−2)
Since there are numerous quantities in term two that are the same, the term can be written in exponential form.
Now, recall the general form for exponents.
a2=a⋅a(ax)3=ax⋅ax⋅ax
Term two can be written as,
(x−2)3
From here combine the terms together to find an equivalent expression.
2+(x−2)3
