Question:

If 2x + y = 8 and xy = 6 , then find the value of 4x2 + y2 ?

Options:

24

16

28

40

Correct Answer:

40

Explanation:

We know that,

If $K+l=n$

then, $K^2+l^2$ = n2 – 2 × k × l

If 2x + y = 8

xy = 6

then find the value of 4x2 + y2

4x2 + y2 = 82 – 2 × 2 × 6

4x2 + y2 = 64 – 24 = 40
