Answer:

31

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 5x - 3 = 0

with a = 1, b = 5, c= - 3 , then

sum of roots x₁ + x₂ = - \frac{b}{a} = - \frac{5}{1} = - 5

product of roots = \frac{c}{a} = \frac{-3}{1} = - 3

Now

(x₁ + x₂)² = x₁² + 2x₁x₂ + x₂² , that is

(- 5)² = x₁² + 2(- 3) + x₂²

25 = x₁² - 6 + x₂² ( add 6 to both sides ), then

x₁² + x₂² = 31
