What is the value of \( 3^3 - 2^3 \)?

What is the value of \( 3^3 - 2^3 \)?

• A. 15
• B. 17
• C. 19
• D. 21

Answer: (C)

To find the value of \( 3^3 - 2^3 \), we first need to calculate each term separately. Starting with \( 3^3 \): \[ 3^3 = 3 \times 3 \times 3 = 27 \] Next, we calculate \( 2^3 \): \[ 2^3 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 = 8 \] Now we can substitute these values back into the expression: \[ 3^3 - 2^3 = 27 - 8 \] Subtracting 8 from 27 gives us: \[ 27 - 8 = 19 \] Thus, the value of \( 3^3 - 2^3 \) is 19. This means that the correct answer reflects the accurate computation of both cubes and the subsequent subtraction.

To find the value of ( 3^3 - 2^3 ), we first need to calculate each term separately.

Starting with ( 3^3 ):

[

3^3 = 3 \times 3 \times 3 = 27

]

Next, we calculate ( 2^3 ):

[

2^3 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 = 8

]

Now we can substitute these values back into the expression:

[

3^3 - 2^3 = 27 - 8

]

Subtracting 8 from 27 gives us:

[

27 - 8 = 19

]

Thus, the value of ( 3^3 - 2^3 ) is 19. This means that the correct answer reflects the accurate computation of both cubes and the subsequent subtraction.
