  1. We would try to make whole squares to get minimum value 
Rewrite as
x^2-4xy+4y^{2}+x^{2}-4xz+4z^{2}+x^{2}-4x+4+y^{2}-2y+1+20
(x-2y)2 +(x-2z)2+(x-2)2+(y-1)2+20
squares of any number >=0 
So minimum value of expression =20
 
2.  ab-a=b+119 , bc-b=c+59 , ca-c =a+71
ab-a-b=119 , bc-b-c=59, ca-c-a=71
Adding 1 on both sides we get
ab-a-b+1=120 
a(b-1)-(b-1)=120
(a-1)(b-1)=120 ----(1)
 
similarly adding 1 to both side in other two equation we will get 
(b-1)(c-1)=60 -----(2)
 
(a-1)(c-1)=72 -----(3)
 
divide 1 by 2 
a-1/c-1=2 
and from 3  putting value of (c-1)
(a-1)2/72=2
(a-1)2=144
a-1=-12 (a is negative )
a=-11
Similarly
b=-9
c=-5
