Let $ a,b,c>0 $ and $a^3+b^3+c^3+1=4abc$. Prove that
$$ (2-a)(2-b)(2-c) \leq abc $$

By AM-GM, \(4abc = a^3 + b^3 + c^3 + 1 \geq 4 (abc)^{3/4}\), thus \(abc \geq 1\).

Now let \(t = \sqrt[3]{abc} \geq 1\), then
\[
\sum a \geq 3t
\]and by Schur,
\[
\sum ab \leq \frac{\sum a^3 + 6 abc}{\sum a} = \frac{10 abc - 1}{\sum a} \leq \frac{10 t^3 - 1}{3t}
\]Substituting the above results and factoring, we obtain
\[
abc - (2 - a)(2 - b)(2 - c) \geq \frac{2 (t - 1) (3 t^3 - 7 t^2 + 11 t - 1)}{3 t} \geq 0
\]

Solution.First we solve the system below:
\begin{align*} \begin{cases}a^2+2b^2= 9 \\
3b^2+4c^2 = 48\\
5c^2+6a^2 = 51
\end{cases}\iff\begin{cases}a^2=1 \\
b^2= 4\\
c^2= 9
\end{cases}\iff \begin{cases}|a|=1 \\
|b|=2\\
|c|=3.
\end{cases}
\end{align*}Therefore, we get
\begin{align*}
|a+3b+5c|\leq&|a|+3|b|+5|c|=22;\\
|3a-2b+c|\leq& 3|a|+2|b|+|c |=10.\quad \blacksquare
\end{align*}

$$\dfrac{1}{2}\leq  \dfrac{1-a^2}{a+2}+\dfrac{1-b^2}{b+2}+\dfrac{1-c^2}{c+2} \leq \dfrac{5}{8}$$

We have $a+b=2-c\geq c$, so $a,b,c$ are side lengths of a triangle and thus $2(ab+bc+ca)\geq a^2+b^2+c^2$. Therefore, using Cauchy-Schwarz:

$$
\begin{aligned}
\sum \frac{1-a^2}{a+2} &= \sum \left(\frac{1}{2}-a+\frac{3a}{2(2+a)}\right)\\
&= -\frac{1}{2}+\frac{3}{2}\sum\frac{a}{2a+b+c}\\
&\geq -\frac{1}{2}+\frac{3(a+b+c)^2}{4(a^2+b^2+c^2+ab+bc+ca)}\\
&= -\frac{1}{2}+\frac{3}{2}\left(1-\frac{1}{2+\frac{2(ab+bc+ca)}{a^2+b^2+c^2}}\right)\\
&\geq \frac{1}{2}
\end{aligned}
$$
Right hand side follows from

$$\frac{1-a^2}{a+2}\leq -\frac{37}{64}a+\frac{57}{96}$$
