Answer:
x²+1/x² = 51
Explanation:
Given x - 1/x = 7 ---(1)
We know the algebraic identity:
a²+b²-2ab = (a-b)²
Or
a²+b² = (a-b)²+2ab
Now,
x²+1/x²
= (x-1/x)²+2*x*(1/x)
= (x-1/x)²+2
:7²+2 [ from (1)] =
= 49+2
= 51
Therefore,
x²+1/x² = 51
1/4 (8 + 6z + 12)
------------------------------------------------------------
Combine like terms :
------------------------------------------------------------
1/4 (6z + 20)
------------------------------------------------------------
Apply distributive property :
------------------------------------------------------------
1/4(6z) + 1/4(20)
3/2z + 5
------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: 3/2z + 5
