289. If $$\frac{{4\left[ {{{\left( {17} \right)}^3} - {{\left( 7 \right)}^3}} \right]}}{{\left( {{{17}^2} + {7^2} + p} \right)}} = 40,$$ then what is the value of p?
290. $${\text{If }}\sqrt {1 - \frac{{{x^3}}}{{100}}} = \frac{3}{5}{\text{,}}$$ then x equals to?
291. If x + y + z = 10, x3 + y3 + z3 = 75 and xyz = 15, then find the value of x2 + y2 + z2 - xy - yz - zx.
292. If the equation 2x2 - 7x + 12 = 0 has two roots $$\alpha$$ and $$\beta$$, then the value of $$\frac{\alpha }{\beta }{\text{ + }}\frac{\beta }{\alpha }\,{\text{is?}}$$
