Solution

Given: a(a2+a+1)+5

a (a2 + a + 1) + 5

⇒ (a × a2)+ (a × a) + (a + 1) + 5

⇒ a3 + a2 + a + 5

Puting a = 0 in a3 + a2 + a + 5

a3 + a2 + a + 5

⇒ 03 + 02 + 0 + 5

5

Puting a = 1 in a3 + a2 + a + 5

a3 + a2 + a + 5

⇒ 13 + 12 + 1 + 5

⇒ 1 + 1 + 1 + 5

8

Puting a = -1 in a3 + a2 + a + 5

a3 + a2 + a + 5

⇒ (-1)3 + (-1)2 – 1 + 5

⇒ -1 + 1 – 1 + 5
