If a2 + b2 + c2 + 27 = 6(a + b + c), then what is the value of $$\root 3 \of {{a^3} + {b^3} - {c^3}} ?$$
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer:
Option
A
$$\eqalign{
& {a^2} + {b^2} + {c^2} + 27 = 6\left( {a + b + c} \right) \cr
& {\left( {a - 3} \right)^2} + {\left( {b - 3} \right)^2} + {\left( {c - 3} \right)^2} = 0 \cr
& a = 3,\,b = 3,\,c = 3 \cr
& \root 3 \of {{a^3} + {b^3} - {c^3}} \cr
& = \root 3 \of {27 + 27 - 27} \cr
& = \root 3 \of {27} \cr
& = 3 \cr} $$
