    False

    Step-by-step explanation:

    An expression is a sum of cubes if it can be written in form of a³ + b³, where a and b can be any constant/variables.

    So, this means the given expression 125x³ + 144 can only be sum of cubes if the both the terms i. e. 125x³ and 144 are perfect cubes.

    125x³ = (5x) ³. This means 125x³ is a perfect cube. However, 144 is not a perfect cube.

    Hence we can conclude that the expression 125x³ + 144 is not a sum of cubes. So the answer to this question if FALSE
