Answer:

Equation A is true; Equation B is not

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a standard formula for the "difference of cubes" that is:

x^3 - y^3 = (x - y)(x^2 + xy + y^2)

and this perfectly matches equation A.

Equation B has the square of n (n^2) on the left side but not on the right side.  Thus this is not an identity.
