8. $(x + 1)(x - 1)(x + 3)$

8. $(x + 1)(x - 1)(x + 3)$
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Multiply first two binomials
Use difference - of - squares formula $(a + b)(a - b)=a^{2}-b^{2}$. Here $a = x$ and $b = 1$, so $(x + 1)(x - 1)=x^{2}-1$.
Step2: Multiply the result by the third binomial
$(x^{2}-1)(x + 3)=x^{2}(x + 3)-1(x + 3)$.
Step3: Expand the products
$x^{2}(x + 3)-1(x + 3)=x^{3}+3x^{2}-x - 3$.
Answer:
$x^{3}+3x^{2}-x - 3$
