Question and options

If x+y+z=7x+y+z=7, x2+y2+z2=85x^2+y^2+z^2=85 and x3+y3+z3=913x^3+y^3+z^3=913, then value of xyz3\sqrt[3]{xyz} is
  1. 1
  2. 2
  3. 4
  4. 8

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: C - 4
xy+yz+zx = (49-85)/2 = -18. x^3+y^3+z^3-3xyz = 7(85+18) = 721, so 3xyz = 913-721 = 192, xyz = 64, cube root = 4.
