Question
Evaluate:$ (28)^3 + (-15)^3 + (-13)^3$​​​​​​​

Answer

$(28)^3 + (-15)^3 + (-13)^3$
We know: $x^3 + y^3 + z^3 - 3xyz$
$= (x + y + z)(x^2 + y^2 + z^2 - xy - yz - zx) x^3 + y^3 + z^3$
$= (x + y + z)(x^2 + y^2 + z^2 - xy - yz - zx) + 3xyz$
Here, $x = (-28), y = -15, z$
$= -13 (28)^3 + (-15)^3 + (-13)^3$
$= (28 - 15 - 13)[(28)^2 + (-15)^2 + (-13)^2 - 28(-15)$
$​​​​​​​= (-15)(-13) - 28(-13)] + 3 \times 28(-15)(-13)$
$= 0 + 16380 = 16380$
