322 |
⇒ If x - \(\frac{1}{x}\) = a then x + \(\frac{1}{x}\) = \(\sqrt {a^2 + 4}\) and If x + \(\frac{1}{x}\) = a then ⇒ x3 + \(\frac{1}{x^3}\) = a3 - 3a ATQ, x - \(\frac{1}{x}\) = 3\(\sqrt{5}\), then ⇒ x + \(\frac{1}{x}\) = \(\sqrt {(3\sqrt{5})^2 + 4}\) = 7 ⇒ ( x3 + \(\frac{1}{x^3}\) ) = 73 - 3 × 7 = 322 |
