If $x+y=7$ and $xy=10$, find $(x^3+y^3)^2-9x^2y^2(x+y)^2$.
24011
- 26411
12255
− 12251
Correct answer: - 26411
Solution
Using $x^3+y^3=(x+y)^3-3xy(x+y)$, we get $x^3+y^3=7^3-3\cdot10\cdot7=343-210=133$. Also, $9x^2y^2(x+y)^2=9\cdot100\cdot49=44100$. Thus the expression is $133^2-44100=17689-44100=-26411$.
