Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 76 Given: x – 1/x = 4 Formula used: (a – b)3 = a3 – b3 – 3ab(a – b) Calculation: Our given expression is x – 1/x = 4 Taking cube on both the sides, (x – 1/x)3 = 43 ⇒ x3 – 1/x3 – 3x × 1/x(x – 1/x) = 64 ⇒ x3 – 1/x3 – 3 × 4 = 64 ----(∵ x – 1/x = 4) ⇒ x3 – 1/x3 = 64 + 12 ⇒ x3 – 1/x3 = 76 ∴ The value of the given expression is 76 |
