If x+y+z=7x+y+z=7, x2+y2+z2=85x^2+y^2+z^2=85 and x3+y3+z3=913x^3+y^3+z^3=913, then value of xyz3\sqrt[3]{xyz} is

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 3

Using the identity (x+y+z)2=x2+y2+z2+2(xy+yz+zx)(x+y+z)^2=x^2+y^2+z^2+2(xy+yz+zx):

72=85+2(xy+yz+zx)7^2=85+2(xy+yz+zx)

⇒49−85=2(xy+yz+zx)\Rightarrow 49-85=2(xy+yz+zx)

⇒xy+yz+zx=−18\Rightarrow xy+yz+zx=-18


Now using the identity x3+y3+z3−3xyz=(x+y+z)(x2+y2+z2−xy−yz−zx)x^3+y^3+z^3-3xyz=(x+y+z)\left(x^2+y^2+z^2-xy-yz-zx\right):

913−3xyz=7(85−(−18))913-3xyz=7\left(85-(-18)\right)

⇒913−3xyz=7×103=721\Rightarrow 913-3xyz=7\times103=721

⇒3xyz=192\Rightarrow 3xyz=192

⇒xyz=64\Rightarrow xyz=64


xyz3=643=4\sqrt[3]{xyz}=\sqrt[3]{64}=4
