Correct Answer: 536
Solution : Given: $\frac{(x^{2} - 1)}{x} = 8$ ⇒ $x - \frac{1}{x} = 8$ Cubing on both sides, ⇒ $x^{3}- \frac{1}{x^{3}} - 3 \times x \times \frac{1}{x} \times (x - \frac{1}{x})= (8)^3$ [Since, $(a - b)^{3} = a^{3} - b^{3} - 3ab (a - b)$] ⇒ $x^{3}- \frac{1}{x^{3}} - 3 \times 8 = 512$ ⇒ $x^{3} - \frac{1}{x^{3}} = 512+24$ ⇒ $\frac{(x^{6} - 1)}{x^{3}} = 536$ Hence, the correct answer is 536.
