Answer

Given, 2x = 3y - 5 or 2x - 3y = -5

Cubing both sides we get,

⇒ (2x - 3y)3 = (-5)3

(2x)3 - (3y)3 - 3(2x)(3y)(2x - 3y) = -125

⇒ 8x3 - 27y3 - 18xy(2x - 3y) = -125

⇒ 8x3 - 27y3 - 18xy(-5) = -125

⇒ 8x3 - 27y3 + 90xy = -125

⇒ 8x3 - 27y3 + 90xy + 125 = 0.

Hence, 8x3 - 27y3 + 90xy + 125 = 0.
