α, β are the roots of the equation x2+4x+5. Find the value of α3+β3
4
-4
6
-6
Sum of the roots, α+β=−4 ... (i)
Product of the roots, αβ=5 ... (ii)
Taking cube of equation (i)
(α+β)3=α3+β3+3αβ(α+β)
⇒α3+β3=(α+β)3−3αβ(α+β)
=(−4)3−3×5×−4
=−64+60
=−4
α, β are the roots of the equation x2 + 4x + 5. Find α3 + β3
