Find the Value Using Identity

Find the Value of \(27x^3+8y^3\), if \(3x+2y=20\) and \(xy=\frac{14}{9}\)

Solution:

Using identity:

\[ a^3+b^3=(a+b)^3-3ab(a+b) \]

Here,

\[ a=3x,\quad b=2y \]

\[ a+b=20 \]

\[ ab=(3x)(2y)=6xy =6\left(\frac{14}{9}\right) =\frac{28}{3} \]

\[ 27x^3+8y^3 = (20)^3-3\left(\frac{28}{3}\right)(20) \]

\[ = 8000-560 \]

\[ =7440 \]
