Solution:
Solution:
So,
Solution:
Now, for x = 2,
f(2) = 5(2) – 4(2)2 + 3
=> f(2) = 10 – 16 + 3 = –3
=> f(–1) = –5 –4 + 3 = -6
Solution:
Given,
So, by factoring 25x2 – 35x + 12, the length and breadth can be obtained.
Solution:
So,
So,
Or, xy + yz + xz = 142/2 = 71
Now,
x + y + z = 15, x² + y² + z² = 83 and xy + yz + xz = 71
=> x3 + y3 + z3 – 3xyz = 15 × 12
We know that,
Given, a + b + c = 15 and a2 + b2 + c2 = 83
⇒ 142/2 = ab + bc + ca
⇒ ab + bc + ca = 71
Solution:
Given, (x – 1/x) = 4
(x – 1/x)2 = 16
⇒ x2 – 2.x.1/x + 1/x2 = 16
⇒ x2 – 2 + 1/x2 = 16
⇒ x2 + 1/x2 = 16 + 2 = 18
⇒ x4 + 2 + 1/x4 = 324
8. Find the values of a and b so that (2x3 + ax2 + x + b) has (x + 2) and (2x – 1) as
factors.
Solution:
⇒ –16 + 4a – 2 + b = 0 ⇒ 4a + b = 18 ….(i)
⇒ a + 4b = –3 ….(ii)
Solution:
Let p(x) = 3x3 + 7x and g(x) = 7 + 3x. Now g(x) = 0 ⇒ x = –7/3.
By the remainder theorem, we know that when p(x) is divided by g(x) then the
remainder is p(–7/3).
Solution:
Solution:
x2 – 1 – 2a – a2 = x2 – (1 + 2a + a2)
= x2 – (1 + a)2
= [x – (1 – a)][x + 1 + a]
= (x – 1 – a)(x + 1 + a)
∴ x2 – 1 – 2a – a2 = (x – 1 – a)(x + 1 + a).
