Find the number of integral solutions to |x| + |y| + |z| = 15. 


Options:
A .   900
B .   901
C .   902
D .   903
E .   none of these
Answer: Option C
:
C

option c


Case 1:When none of them are zero


Number of +ve integral solutions of x + y + z = 15 is 14C2 however, x y z can be -ve also total 8 ways for each set of x y z Total 14C2×8=728


Case 2:When one of them is zero


No of solutions = 3×4×14C1=168 Case 3: When two of them are zeroes


Number of solutions = 3×2=6


Total= 902, option (c)
