Explanation:

Given

  • x + 2y = 3 and xy = 2
  • show that x³ + 8y³ + 9 = 0​

Solution in steps:

  • (x + 2y)³ = 3³
  • x³ + 3x²(2y) + 3x(2y)² + (2y)³ = 27
  • x³ + 6x(xy) + 12y(xy) + 8y³ = 27
  • x³ + 8y³ + 6(x + 2y)xy = 27 ⇒ Substitute values
  • x³ + 8y³ + 6*3*2 = 27
  • x³ + 8y³ + 36 - 27 = 0
  • x³ + 8y³ + 9 = 0
