Factor the expression \(x^3 + 8\)

Step 1 ：Identify the cube roots of both terms; \(x\) is the cube root of \(x^3\) and \(2\) is the cube root of \(8\)

Step 2 ：Use the formula for factoring the sum of cubes: \(a^3 + b^3 = (a + b)(a^2 - ab + b^2)\). Substitute \(a = x\) and \(b = 2\) into the formula

Step 3 ：Calculate the values of \(a^2 - ab + b^2\) using \(a = x\) and \(b = 2\)
