Correct Answer: Neither I nor II
Solution : Statement I. If $x=12, y=-2$ and $z=-10$, then $x^3+y^3+z^3=360$. $x^3 = (12)^3 = 1728$ $y^3 = (-2)^3 = -8$ $z^3 = (-10)^3 = -1000$ $\therefore$ $x^3 + y^3 + z^3 = 1728 + (-8) + (-1000) $ ⇒ $x^3 + y^3 + z^3 = 720$ $\therefore$ Statement I is false. Statement II. If $x+y=48$ and $4 x y=128$, then $4 x^2+4 y^2=4480$ $x+y = 48$ $4xy = 128$ ⇒ $2xy = 64$ squaring both sides, $x^2 + y^2 + 2xy = 2304$ $x^2 + y^2 + 64 = 230$ ⇒ $x^2 + y^2 = 166$ Multiplying by 4 on both sides, $4x^2 + 4y^2 = 4\times 166$ ⇒ $4x^2 + 4y^2 = 664$ $\therefore$ Statement II is also incorrect. Hence, the correct answer is neither I nor II.
