Answer:
335
Step-by-step explanation:
Factor the given binomial:
x - y = 5
xy = 14
x = y + 5
(y + 5)y = 14
y^2 + 5y - 14 = 0
(y + 7)(y - 2) = 0
y = -7 or y = 2
y = -7
xy = 14
-7x = 14
x = -2
y = 2
2x = 14
x = 7
Solutions:
x = -2, y = -7
x = 7, y = 2
For x = -2, y = 7
x^3 - y^3 =
= (-2)^3 - (-7)^3
= -8 - (-343)
= 335
For x = 7, y = 2
x^3 - y^3 =
= 7^3 - 2^3
= 343 - 8
= 335
