Let
A=a+2000, B=b−2000, C=c+2000, D=d−2000, E=e+2000, F=f−2000,
and
P(x)=(A+x)(B−x)(C+x)+(D−x)(E+x)(F−x).
P(x) is a polynomial in x, and the left-hand side of the 3 equations given for the problem equals P(−1), P(0) and P(1), respectively. The problem is asking to find the value P(9).
Since we have
(A+x)(B−x)(C+x)(D−x)(E+x)(F−x)=−x3+(terms with degree 2 or less),=x3+(terms with degree 2 or less),
we can represent P(x) in the form P(x)=px2+qx+r, with some real coefficients p,q,r. From the fact that we have P(−1)=1, P(0)=10 and P(1)=100 we obtain
p−q+r=1,r=10,p+q+r=100.
We can solve this simultaneous equations to get (p,q,r)=(81/2,99/2,10), and conclude that
P(x)=281x2+299x+10.
Substituting 9 for x, we get
P(9)=281⋅81+299⋅9+10=3736
for the answer.
