Detailed Solution

We have to find the factors of 10 x 4 y10x y 4 .
We know that,
a 3 b 3 =(ab) a 2 +ab+ b 2 Considering 10x4y-10xy4,
Taking out the common term in both terms,
10 x 4 y10x y 4 =10xy x 3 y 3 . . . (1)
Comparing (1) with a 3 b 3 ,
a=x b=y
Factoring the expression (1),  10xy(x3-y3)=10xy(x-y)(x2+xy+y2)
Thus, the factors are 10xy(x-y)(x2+xy+y2).
Therefore, option 2 is correct.
