If a + b = 12 and ab = 35, find the value of a4 + b4 – 103?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
If a + b = 12
ab = 35,
Put the value of x = 7 and y = 5 ( These values will satisfy the given equation )
So, the value of a4 + b4 – 103 = 74 + 54 – 103 = 2401 + 625 - 1000
a4 + b4 – 103 = 3026 - 1000 = 2026
