If $x^2-3 x+1=0$, then what is the value of $x^6+\frac{1}{x^6}$ ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
x4 + x2y2 + y4 = (x2 – xy + y2) (x2 + xy + y2)
If $K+\frac{1}{K}=n$
then, $K^2+\frac{1}{K^2}$ = n2 – 2
If x + \(\frac{1}{x}\) = n
then, $x^3 +\frac{1}{x^3}$ = n3 - 3 × n
If $x^2-3 x+1=0$,
then what is the value of $x^6+\frac{1}{x^6}$
Divide If $x^2-3 x+1=0$, by x on both the sides,
x + \(\frac{1}{x}\) = 3
x2 + \(\frac{1}{x^2}\) = 32 – 2 = 7
cubing both the sides,
$x^6 +\frac{1}{x^6}$ = 73 - 3 × 7 = 322
