If ⁻¹ x+ ⁻¹ y+ ⁻¹ z=3 , then the value of x^2+y^2+z^2-2 x y z is
Options
- A3
- B2
- C1
- D5
Correct answer
D. 5
Step-by-step solution
Since, 0 ⁻¹ x ⁻¹ x cannot be greater than ⁻¹ x= ⁻¹ y= ⁻¹ x= Therefore, x=y= z =-1 Putting these values in the given expression, we get aligned & x^2+y^2+z^2-2 x y z & =(-1)^2+(-1)^2+(-1)^2-2(-1)(-1)(-1) & =1+1+1-2(-1) & =3+2 & =5 aligned
