Question : If $\frac{x-a^{2}}{b+c}+\frac{x-b^{2}}{c+a}+\frac{x-c^{2}}{a+b} = 4(a+b+c)$, then $x$ is equal to:

Option 1: $(a+b+c)^{2}$

Option 2: $a^{2}+b^{2}+c^{2}$

Option 3: $ab+bc+ca$

Option 4: $a^{2}+b^{2}+c^{2}-ab-bc-ca$

Team Careers360 11th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: $(a+b+c)^{2}$


Solution : Let values of $a = 1, b = 1, c = 0$
$\frac{x-a^{2}}{b+c}+\frac{x-b^{2}}{c+a}+\frac{x-c^{2}}{a+b} = 4(a+b+c)$
Now, let us find the value of $x$ by substituting the values of $a$, $b$ and $c$.
$\frac{x-1}{1}+\frac{x-1}{1}+\frac{x}{2}=4(2)$
⇒ $(x-1)+(x-1)+\frac{x}{2}=8$
⇒ $(2x-2)+\frac{x}{2}=8$
⇒ $2(2x-2)+x=8\times 2$
⇒ $4x-4+x=16$
⇒ $5x=20$

Team Careers360 3rd Jan, 2024

$= \frac{146^3-143^3}{146^2+143^2+146 \times 143}$
$=\frac{(146-143)(146^2+143^2+146 \times 143)}{146^2+143^2+146 \times 143}$
$=146 - 143$
$=3$
Hence, the correct answer is 3.
