If for $$p \neq q \neq 0$$, the function $$f(x) = \frac{7\sqrt[p]{729+x} - 3}{\sqrt[3]{729+qx} - 9}$$ is continuous at $$x = 0$$, then
Given,
$$f(x)=\frac{\sqrt[7]{p(729+x)}-3}{\sqrt[3]{729+qx}-9}$$
For continuity at
$$x=0,$$
the limit must exist.
Substituting $$x=0$$ in denominator,
$$\sqrt[3]{729}-9=9-9=0$$
Hence numerator must also become zero.
Therefore,
$$\sqrt[7]{p(729)}-3=0$$
Since
$$729=3^6,$$
$$\sqrt[7]{3^6p}=3$$
$$3^6p=3^7$$
$$p=3$$
Now evaluate
$$f(0)=\lim_{x\to0}\frac{\sqrt[7]{3(729+x)}-3}{\sqrt[3]{729+qx}-9}$$
Using L’Hôpital’s Rule,
$$f(0)=\lim_{x\to0}\frac{\frac{1}{7}[3(729+x)]^{-6/7}\cdot3}{\frac13(729+qx)^{-2/3}\cdot q}$$
Substituting $$x=0,$$
$$f(0)=\frac{\frac{3}{7(3^7)^{6/7}}}{\frac{q}{3(3^6)^{2/3}}}$$
$$=\frac{\frac{3}{7\cdot3^6}}{\frac{q}{3\cdot3^4}}$$
$$=\frac{1}{7q}$$
Hence,
$$7qf(0)=1$$
Since
$$p=3,$$
$$p^2=9$$
Multiplying by $$9,$$
$$63qf(0)=9=p^2$$
Therefore,
$$63qf(0)-p^2=0$$
Hence, the correct relation is
$$\boxed{63qf(0)-p^2=0}$$.
