    If \[x=5,\]\[y=6\]and \[z=-\,\,11,\]then the value of \[{{x}^{3}}+{{y}^{3}}+{{z}^{3}}\] is

    A) \[-\,\,890\]                     

    B) \[-\,\,970\]

    C) \[-\,\,870\]                     

    D) \[-\,\,990\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Given, \[x=5,\]\[y=6\]and \[z=-\,\,11\]
    \[\therefore \]      \[x+y+z=5+6-11\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[x+y+z=0\]                             … (i)
    Now, \[{{x}^{3}}+{{y}^{3}}+{{z}^{3}}-3xyz\]
    \[=(x+y+z)({{x}^{2}}+{{y}^{2}}+{{z}^{2}}-xy-yz-xz)\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{x}^{3}}+{{y}^{3}}+{{z}^{3}}-3xyz=0\]   [from Eq. (i)]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{x}^{3}}+{{y}^{3}}+{{z}^{3}}=3xyz\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]\[{{x}^{3}}+{{y}^{3}}+{{z}^{3}}=3\,\,(5)(6)(-11)\]
    \[\therefore \]\[{{x}^{3}}+{{y}^{3}}+{{z}^{3}}=-\,\,990\]
