If a + b + c = 17 and a2 + b2 + c2 = 127, then what is the value of a3 + b3 + c3 – 3abc ?
a + b + c = 17
squaring both the sides
a2 + b2 + c2 + 2ab + 2bc + 2ca = 289
127 + 2(ab + bc + ca) = 289
ab + bc + ca = (289 – 127)/2 = 162/2 = 81
We know that,
a3 + b3 + c3 – 3abc = (a + b + c)(a2 + b2 + c2 – ab – bc – ac)
a3 + b3 + c3 – 3abc = 17(127 – 81) = 782
