sequences and series - Difficult nonlinear system based on max value




Let (a,b,c) be the real solution of the system of equations x3xyz=2, y3xyz=6, z3xyz=20. The greatest possible value of a3+b3+c3 can be written in the form mn, where m and n are relatively prime positive integers. Find m+n.




I got that:




a3+b3+c3=28+3abc



I tried using a substitution,



t=abc to get:



a3+b3+c3=28+3t but I cannot replace the LHS.



Can somebody just help me with the substitution, thats all!?


Answer




Hint.



You have {x3=2+ty3=6+tz3=20+t Hence x3y3z3=t3=(2+t)(6+t)(20+t)
