Correct Answer - Option 2 : 52

Calculation:

xy = 19 - x - y

 x + y + xy = 19   ---(1)

yz = 23 - y - z

 y + z + yz = 23   ---(2)

xz = 29 - x - z

 x + z + xz = 29   ---(3)

Adding 1 in equation (1), (2) and (3)

(1 + x) (1 + y) = 20   ---(4)

(1 + y) (1 + z) = 24   ---(5)

(1 + z) (1 + x) = 30   ---(6)

Multiplying equation (4), (5), and (6) together, we get,

(1 + x)2.(1 + y)2.(1 + z) 2 = 20 × 24 × 30

 (1 + x).(1 + y).(1 + z) = √(20 × 24 × 30)

 √(5 × 4 × 6 × 4 × 5 × 6)

 5 × 4 × 6 = 120

∵ (1 + x) (1 + y) (1 + z) = 120

∴ (1 + x) (1 + y) = 20

∴ (1 + z) = 120/20 = 6

 z = 6 - 1 = 5

∵ (1 + x) (1 + y) (1 + z) = 120

∴ (1 + z) (1 + x) = 30

 (1 + y) = 120/30 = 4

 y = 3

∵ (1 + x) (1 + y) (1 + z) = 120

∴ (1 + x) (1 + y) = 20

 (1 + x) (1 + 3) = 20

 4(1 + x) = 20/4

 x = 4

∴ 2x2 + 5y2 - z2 = 2 × 42 + 5 × 32 - 52

 2 × 16 + 5 × 9 - 25

 32 + 45 - 25

 52
