Open in App
Solution

X = 2y + 6
⇒ x - 2y - 6 = 0 ----------------------(1)
⇒ x - 2y = 6
⇒ (x - 2y)³ = 6³
⇒ x³ - (2y)³ - 3 × x² × 2y + 3 × x × (2y)² = 216
⇒ x³ - 8y³ - 6x²y + 12xy² = 216
⇒ x³ - 8y³ -216 = 6x²y - 12xy²
⇒ x³ - 8y³ -216 - 36xy = 6x²y - 12xy² - 36xy (subtracting 36xy from both side)
⇒ x³ - 8y³ -216 - 36xy = 6xy (x - 2y - 6)
⇒ x³ - 8y³ -216 - 36xy = 6xy × (0) -----------(from eqn-1)
⇒ x³ - 8y³ -216 - 36xy = 0
