Question:

If 4x2 + 3y2 = 67, xy = 4 (x, y > 0)

find x3 + y2.

Options:

64

65

56

76

Correct Answer:

65

Explanation:

By Putting x = 4 and y = 1

These values are satisfying the equations:

⇒ 4x2 + 3y2 = 67

⇒ 4(4)2 + 3(1)2 = 67

⇒ 67 = 67

Put these values and find:

⇒ x3 + y2 = (4)3 + (1)2= 64 + 1 = 65
