Question : What will be the value of $x^{3}+y^{3}+z^{3}-3xyz$, when $x+y+z=9$ and $x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}=31?$

Option 1: 27

Option 2: 3

Option 3: 54

Option 4: 9

Team Careers360 21st Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 54


Solution : Give: $x+y+z=9$ ......(1)
$x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}=31$ ......(2)
As $(a+b+c)^2 = a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + 2(ab+bc+ca)$
Squaring (1) on both sides, we have,
$(x+y+z)^2 = 81$
⇒ $x^2 + y^2 + z^2 +2(xy+yz+zx) = 81$
⇒ $31+2(xy+yz+zx) = 81$
⇒ $xy+yz+zx = 25$
Now, $x^{3}+y^{3}+z^{3}-3xyz$
=
