If x + \(\frac{1}{x}\) = n then, $x^3 +\frac{1}{x^3}$ = n3 - 3 × n If $x^{2}-3x+1=0 $ then the value of $\left(x^{4} + \frac{1}{x^{2}}\right) \div (x^{2} + 1)$ = ? we can write $ (x^{4}+\frac{1}{x^{2}}) \div(x^{2}+1)$ by taking x as common form numerator and denominator as = $\left(x^{3} + \frac{1}{x^{3}}\right) \div (x + \frac{1}{x})$ $x^{2}- 3x + 1 = 0$ Divide by x on both sides, x + \(\frac{1}{x}\) = 3 then, $x^3 +\frac{1}{x^3}$ = 33 - 3 × 3 = 18 So the value of $\left(x^{3} + \frac{1}{x^{3}}\right) \div (x + \frac{1}{x})$ = \(\frac{18}{3}\) = 6 |
