    Question

    If 9x² + y² = 37 and xy=2, x, y>0, then the

    value of (27x³ + y³) is:
    A 301 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 217 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 207 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 259 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    27x3 + y3 = (3x + y) (9x2 + y2 – 3xy) = use (a + b)2 = a2 + b2 + 2ab = (3x + y)2 = ax2 + y2 + 6xy = (3x + y)2 = 37 + 6 × 2 = 49 = 3x + y = 7 = 27x3 + y3 = 7 × (37 – 3 × 2) = 27x3 + y3 = 7 × 31 = 217
