Question

If a+b+c =9 and a² + b²+ c²=35 find the value of a³ + b³ + c³ - 3ab

Open in App
Solution

(a+b+c)²=9²=81
a²+b²+c²+2ab+2bc+2ca=81
a²+b²+c²+2ab+2bc+2ca-(a²+b²+c²)=81-35
2ab+2bc+2ca=46
2(ab+bc+ca)=46
(ab+bc+ca)=23
a³+b³+c³-3abc=(a+b+c)(a²+b²+c²-ab-bc-ca)
=9(35-(ab+bc+ca))
=9(35-23)
=9(12)=108
