Question:

If $x^3 + 27 y^3 + 64z^3 = 36 xyz$, then the relationship between x, y and z is

Options:

x + y + z = 0

x - 3y + 4z = 0

x + 3y = 4z

x + 3y + 4z = 0

Correct Answer:

x + 3y + 4z = 0

Explanation:

We know that,

If a + b + c = 0 then a3 + b+ c= 3abc

x3 + 27y3 + 64z3 = 36xyz

x3 + (3y)3 + (4z)3 = 3 × (x) × (3y) × (4z)

= x + 3y + 4z = 0
