Description : Find the value of x3 + y3 + z3 – 3xyz if x2 + y2 + z2 = 83 and x + y + z = 15 -Maths 9th

Last Answer : Consider the equation x + y + z = 15 From algebraic identities, we know that (a + b + c)2 = a2 + b2 + c2 + 2(ab + bc + ca) So, (x + y + z)2 = x2 + y2 + z2 + 2(xy + yz + xz) From the question, x2 + y2 + z2 ... y3 + z3 - 3xyz = 15(83 - 71) => x3 + y3 + z3 - 3xyz = 15 12 Or, x3 + y3 + z3 - 3xyz = 180
