    We are to determine if the given are differences of perfect cubes and in order to do so, we simply have to calculate for the cube root of the terms in the given.

    (a) 9a³ - 27 = ((∛9) a) ³ - 3³; NO

    (b) 125a¹² - 72 = (5a⁴) ³ - (∛72) ³; NO

    (c) 216a⁶ - 27y³ = (6a²) ³ - (3y) ³; YES

    (d) 8a¹⁵ - 27 = (2a⁵) ³ - (3) ³; YES

    (e) 225a³ - 216 = (15a) ³ - (6) ³; YES

    Therefore, the answers are the third, fourth, and fifth choices.
