If x+1x=5 and x2+1x3=8 then find x3+1x2.
Solve for the given expression:
It is given that x+1x=5 and x2+1x3=8
On squaring and cubing x+1x=5 on both sides we get
x+1x2=25⇒x2+1x2+2=25⇒x2+1x2=23...(i)x+1x3=125⇒x3+1x3+3x+1x=125⇒x3+1x3+3×5=125⇒x3+1x3=125-15=110...(ii)
x2+1x2=23[equation(i)]⇒8-1x3+1x2=23...(iii)[∵x2=8-1x3]
And
1x3=110-x3∵equation(ii)8+x3-110+1x2=23∵equation(iii)⇒x3+1x2=125
Hence the value of x3+1x2is 125.
If f=x1+x2+13(x1+x2)3+15(x1+x2)5+... to ∞ and g=x−23x3+15x5+17x7−29x9+..., then f=d×g. Find 4d.
