SOLUTION: We are to find the value of {{{x^4+x^4+z^4}}} when X, Y and Z are real numbers which satisfy the following three equalities: {{{x+y+z=3}}} {{{x^2+y^2+z^2=9}}} {{{xyz= -2}}}

Question 978785: We are to find the value of when X, Y and Z are real numbers which satisfy the following three equalities:

Firstly, it follows from the first two equalities that

Next using

we have

x+y+z=3,
x^2+y^2+z^2=9,
xyz= -2,
x^4+x^4+z^4=c
c = 57-32 sqrt(3), x = 1-sqrt(3), y = 1+sqrt(3), z = 1
c = 57+32 sqrt(3), x = 1-sqrt(3), y = 1+sqrt(3), z = 1
c = 84+16 sqrt(3), x = 1-sqrt(3), y = 1, z = 1+sqrt(3)
c = 84-16 sqrt(3), x = 1-sqrt(3), y = 1, z = 1+sqrt(3)
c = 30-16 sqrt(3), x = 1, y = 1-sqrt(3), z = 1+sqrt(3)
c = 30+16 sqrt(3), x = 1, y = 1-sqrt(3), z = 1+sqrt(3)
