If the sum of two numbers is 11 and the sum of their squares is 65, then the sum of their cubes will be:
Let the two numbers are $$a$$ and $$b$$
Given, Sum of their squares = 65
$$=$$>Â $$a^2+b^2=65$$ ...................(1)
Sum of two numbers = 11
$$=$$>Â $$a+b=11$$
$$=$$> Â $$\left(a+b\right)^2=11^2$$
$$=$$> Â $$a^2+b^2+2ab=121$$
$$=$$>Â Â $$65+2ab=121$$
$$=$$> Â $$2ab=56$$
$$=$$> Â $$ab=28$$ ............................(2)
$$\therefore\ $$Sum of their cubes =Â $$a^3+b^3$$
$$=\left(a+b\right)\left(a^2+b^2-ab\right)$$
$$=\left(11\right)\left(65-28\right)$$
$$=\left(11\right)\left(37\right)$$
$$=407$$
Hence, the correct answer is Option A
