Answer: a²+b² = -99/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given two equations, this equations will be solved simultaneously to get a² and b²

a³ - 3ab² = 47 ... 1

b³ - 3a² b = 52... 2

From 1, a(a² - 3b²) = 47...3

From 2, b(b² - 3a²) = 52... 4

Adding 3 and 4, we have;

a²+b²-3b²-3a² = 99 (note that a and b will no longer be part of the equations as they have been factored out)

a²+b²-(3b²+3a²) = 99

(a²+b²) -3(b²+a²)= 99

Taking the difference we have

- 2(a²+b²) = 99

a²+b² = -99/2

emmainna [20.7K]

year 1

cost = 1.03 (1500) = 1545

put 1545 in for x in year 2

year 2

1.03 * 1545 = 1591.35

put in 1591.35 in for x in year 3

year 3

1.03 *1591.35=1639.0905

round to the nearest cent

cost  in three years: $1639.09
