If $x+y=-4$, then $x^3+y^3-12 x y+64=$
  • A
    -64
  • B
    128
  • D
    none of these
Answer
C. 0
$\begin{array}{l}\text { We have, } x+y=-4 \text { or, } x+y+4=0 . \\ \therefore \quad x^2+y^3+4^3=3 x y \times 4 \text { or, } x^3+y^3+64=12 x y \text { or, } x^3+y^3-12 x y+64=0\end{array}$

If $x+y=12$ and $x y=27$, then $x^3+y^3=$
  • A
    765
  • B
    756
  • C
    657
  • D
    675
Answer
B. 756
We know that
$\begin{array}{ll}\therefore & x^3+y^3=(x+y)\left(x^2-x y+y^2\right) \\ \Rightarrow & x^3+y^3=(x+y)\left\{\left((x+y)^2-3 x y\right)\right\}=12\left(12^2-3 \times 27\right)=12(144-81)=756\end{array}$

If $x=2 y+6$, then $x^3-8 y^3-36 x y=$
  • A
    216
  • B
    -216
  • C
    36
  • D
    -36
Answer
A. 216
We have, $x=2 y+6$ or, $x-2 y-6=0$.
$\therefore$ $x^3-(-2 y)^3+(-6)^3=3 x(-2 y)(-6)$
$\Rightarrow$ $x^3-8 y^3-216=36 x y$ $\Rightarrow$ $x^3-8 y^3-36 x y=216$

If $a+b+c=0$, then $\frac{a^2}{b c}+\frac{b^2}{c a}+\frac{c^2}{a b}=$
  • A
    1
  • C
    -1
  • D
    3
Answer
D. 3
We have, $a+b-c=0$
$\Rightarrow$ $a^3+b^3-c^2$ = 3 abc $\Rightarrow$ $\frac{a^3+b^3+c^3}{a b c}$ = 3 $\Rightarrow$ $\frac{a^2}{b c}+\frac{b^2}{c a}+\frac{c^2}{a b}$ =3

If $a^3-(b-a)^3-b^3=k(a-b)$, then $k=$
  • A
    ab
  • B
    3 ab
  • C
    $-3 a b$
  • D
    3
Answer
B. 3 ab
We observe that $a+(b-a)+(-b)=0$.\[\begin{array}{ll}\therefore & a^3+(b-a)^3+(-b)^3=3 a(b-a)(-b) \\\Rightarrow & a^3-(b-a)^3-b^3=3 a b(a-b) \Rightarrow k(a-b)=3 a b(a-b) \Rightarrow k=3 a b\end{array}\]

If $a^3+b^3=5$ and $a \div b=1$, then $a b=$
  • A
    $-\frac{4}{3}$
  • B
    $\frac{4}{3}$
  • C
    $\frac{-3}{4}$
  • D
    $\frac{3}{4}$
Answer
C. $\frac{-3}{4}$
$\left(a^3-b^2\right)=(a+b)\left(a^2-a b+b^2\right)$
$\Rightarrow$ $a^3-b^3=(a+b)\left\{(a+b)^2-3 a b\right\} \Rightarrow 5=(1-3 a b) \Rightarrow a b=-\frac{4}{3}$

$(a-b)^3+(b-c)^3+(c-a)^3$ is equal to
  • A
    $2 a^3+2 b^3+2 c^3$
  • B
    (a-b)(b-c)(c-a)
  • D
    3(ab)(bc)(c-a)
Answer
D. 3(a-b)(b-c)(c-a)
We observe that $(a-b)+(b-c)+(c-a)=0$.
\[\therefore \quad(a-b)^3+(b-c)^3+(c-a)^3=3(a-b)(b-c)(c-a)\]
