Question

    If x² + x = 11

    find (x+4)³ +1/((x+4)³)

    A 322 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 364 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 343 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 347 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let x+4 = m x = m – 4 Now, x² + x = 11 (m – 4)² + m – 4 = 11 m² + 16 - 8m + m – 4 – 11 = 0 m² + 1 - 7m = 0 m² + 1 = 7m Dividing the equation by m We get, m + 1/m = 7 m³ + 1/m³ = (m + 1/m)³ - 3(m + 1/m) = 343 – 21 = 322
