Problem 2 :
If

Problem 3 :

Problem 4 :

Problem 5 :
If x - y = 8 and xy = 5, what is the value of
x3-y3 + 8(x+y)
Problem 6 :
If a - b = 5 and ab = 36, find the value of
(i) a2+ab+b2
(ii) a3-b3
Problem 7 :
If x + y = 5, xy = 6 and x > y
(i) Find the value of 2(x2 + y2)
(ii) Find the value of x3-y3-3(x2+y2)
(iii) Find the value of x5+y5.
(1) Solution :
(x + y)2 = x2+2xy+y2 ----(1)
(x - y)2 = x2-2xy+y2 ----(2)
From (2)
x2+y2 = (x - y)2 + 2xy
By applying the value of x2+y2 in (1), we get
(x + y)2 = 2xy + (x - y)2 + 2xy
(x + y)2 = (x - y)2 + 4xy
Here x - y = 2 and xy = 24
(x + y)2 = (2)2 + 4(24)
(x + y)2 = 4 + 96
(x + y) = √100
x+y = ±10
(2) Solution :
(a+b+c)2 = a2+b2+c2+2ab+2bc+2ca
By applying the given value, we get
(a+b+c)2 = a2+b2+c2+2(ab+bc+ca)
152 = 83+2(ab+bc+ca)
225-83 = 2(ab+bc+ca)
142 = 2(ab+bc+ca)
ab+bc+ca = 71
(3) Solution :
(a + b)2 = a2+2ab+b2 ----(1)
(a - b)2 = a2-2ab+b2 ----(2)
From (2)
a2+b2 = (a - b)2 + 2ab
By applying the value of a2+b2 in (1), we get
(a + b)2 = 2ab + (a - b)2 + 2ab
(a + b)2 = (a - b)2 + 4ab
Here a - b = 4 and ab = 60
(a + b)2 = 42 + 4(60)
(a + b)2 = 16 + 240
(a + b) = √256
a+b = ±16
(4) Solution :
Given :
x-1/x = 4
Taking squares on both sides, we get
(x-1/x)2 = 42
x2-2x(1/x)-1/x2 = 16
x2-2+1/x2 = 16
x2+1/x2 = 18
Again taking squares on both sides, we get
(x2+1/x2)2 = 182
x4+1/x4 + 2 = 324
x4+1/x4 = 322
(5) Solution :
(a-b)3 = a3-3a2b+3ab2-b3
a3-b3 = (a-b)3-3ab(a-b)
x3-y3 = (x-y)3-3xy(x-y)
x3-y3 = 83-3(5)(8)
x3-y3 = 512-120
x3-y3 = 392
x3-y3 + 8(x+y) = 392 + 8(8)
x3-y3 + 8(x+y) = 392+64
x3-y3 + 8(x+y) = 456
(6) Solution :
(i) a2+ab+b2
(a-b)2 = a2-2ab+b2
52 = a2-2(36)+b2
a2+b2 = 25+72
a2+b2 = 97
a2+b2 + ab = 97+36
a2 + ab + b2 = 133
(ii) a3-b3
a3-b3 = (a-b)(a2+ab+b2)
a3-b3 = (5)(133)
a3-b3 = 665
(7) Solution :
(i) 2(x2 + y2) :
(x+y)2 = x2+y2+2xy
52 = x2+y2+2(6)
25-12 = x2+y2
x2+y2 = 13
2(x2+y2) = 26
(ii) x3-y3-3(x2+y2)
x3-y3 = (x-y)3+3xy(x-y) --(1)
(x-y) = √(x+y)2-4xy
(x-y) = √52-4(6)
(x-y) = ±1
If x - y = 1 x3-y3 = 13+3(6)(1) x3-y3 = 19 |
If x - y = -1 x3-y3 = -13+3(6)(-1) x3-y3 = -19 |
x3-y3-3(x2+y2) = 19-3(13) ==> -20
x3-y3-3(x2+y2) = -19-3(13) ==> -58
Given x+y = 5 ----(2)
x-y = 1 ----(3)
(2) + (3)
2x = 6 and x = 3
So, y = 2
(iiii) x5+y5
x5+y5 = 35+25
= 243+32
= 275
