Question Number 118298 by hmh2k20 last updated on 16/Oct/20

     b, x, y, c are consecutive terms of a G.P.                ∴     x = br, y = br^2 , c = br^3              A.M. between b and c is a         ∴     ((b+c)/2)  = a    ⇒  2a = b+c                   2abc = (b+c)bc                         = b^2 c + bc^2                          = b^2 (br^3 ) + b(br^3 )^2                          = b^3 r^3  + b^3 r^6                          = (br)^3  + (br^2 )^3                          = x^3  + y^3                    ∴    x^3  + y^3  = 2abc   ←
