Answer:
Options (2) and (3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let,
-8 + 8i√3 = a² + b²i² + 2abi
-8 + 8i√3 = a² - b² + 2abi
By comparing both the sides of the equation,
a² - b² = -8 -------(1)
2ab = 8√3
ab = 4√3 ----------(2)
a =
By substituting the value of a in equation (1),
48 - b⁴ = -8b²
b⁴ - 8b² - 48 = 0
b⁴ - 12b² + 4b² - 48 = 0
b²(b² - 12) + 4(b² - 12) = 0
(b² + 4)(b² - 12) = 0
b² + 4 = 0 ⇒ b = ±√-4
b = ± 2i
b² - 12 = 0 ⇒ b = ±2√3
Since, a =
For b = ±2i,
a =
=
=
But a is real therefore, a ≠ ±2i√3.
For b = ±2√3
a =
a = ±2
Therefore, (a + bi) = (2 + 2i√3) and (-2 - 2i√3)
Options (2) and (3) are the correct options.
Answer: fourth option
Explanation:
1) the pair x = 3 f(x) = 0, leads you to probe this:
f(3) = 0 = A [4 ^ (3 - 1) ] + C = 0
=> A [4^2] = - C
A[16] = - C
if A = 1/4
16 / 4 = 4 => C = - 4
That leads you to the function f(x) = [1/4] 4 ^( x - 1) - 4
2) Now you verify the images for that function for all the x-values of the table:
x = 2 => f(2) + [1/4] 4 ^ (2 - 1) - 4 = [1/4] 4 - 4 = 4 / 4 - 4 = 1 - 4 = - 3 => check
x = 3 => f(3) = [1/4] 4^ (3 - 1) - 4 = [1/4] 4^2 - 4 = 16 / 4 - 4 = 4 - 4 = 0 => check
x = 4 -> f(4) = [1/4] 4^ (4-1) - 4 = [1/4] 4^(3) - 4 = (4^3) / 4 - 4 = 4^2 - 4 = 16 - 4 = 12 => check.
Therefore, you have proved that the answer is the fourth option.

x = 4 -> f(4) = [1/4] 4^ (4-1) - 4 = [1/4] 4^(3) - 4 = (4^3) / 4 - 4 = 4^2 - 4 = 16 - 4 = 12 => check.
Therefore, you have proved that the answer is the fourth option.
