Find the value of (21)3 – (39)3 + (18)3.1. 44,2262. -44,2263. 45,2264. -45,226

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : -44,226

Calculations:

(21)3 – (39)3 + (18)3 = (a - b) (a2 + b2 + ab) + c3

⇒ (21-39) (212 + 392 + 21 × 39) + (18)3

⇒ -18 × (441 + 1521 + 819) + (18)3

⇒ 18(-2781 + (18)2)

⇒ 18(-2781 + 324)

⇒ 18 × (-2457)

⇒ -44,226.

∴ The value of expresssion - (21)3 – (39)3 + (18)is -44,226.

Short trick:

The algebraic identity states

If a – b + c = 0, then a+ b+ c= -3abc

As 21 – 39 + 18 = 0

⇒ (21)3 – (39)3 + (18)3 

⇒ -3 ×  21 × 39 × 18

⇒ -44,226. 

∴ The value of expresssion (21)3 – (39)3 + (18)is -44,226.
